Salvation by Rebecca Black? Steven Says 4/5

Rebecca said, “I’m making music for us now,” and it SHOWS. This album is loud, campy, and unapologetically queer—exactly what we need in 2025. If you’re not screaming the lyrics on a dance floor soon, what are you even doing? Her new 7-track EP is serving electro bangers, bold visuals, and peak gay club at 2AM energy.

Lyrically, she’s having fun—and it’s infectious. From the first track, it’s clear she’s embracing the maximalism of dance music, a sound that surged in popularity following Charli XCX’s 2024 resurgence. She delivers pulsating beats, larger-than-life synths, and soaring, shout-it-from-the-rooftops hooks that beg to be screamed. Every track feels like a love letter to the queer community, drenched in camp, drama, and that intoxicating blend of nostalgia and futurism—the perfect recipe for a euphoric party soundtrack.
