Magdalene is building her own version of pop-punk: one that’s gritty, theatrical, satirical, and unapologetically strange. Originally from Santa Fe, New Mexico, and now based in Los Angeles, the producer and visionary blends DIY punk energy with a high-fashion edge, creating music that pushes against pop conventions while exploring themes of sobriety, celebrity, spirituality, and the darker side of the music industry. Her work has already earned her recognition from Spotify, including a Fresh Finds Pop cover and placements on Obsessed. 

Her latest release, “Super Lucrative Jukebox Baby”, aims to expose the power dynamics of the music industry by flipping a familiar narrative on its head. The song follows a female executive exploiting a young man who dreams of becoming a star, deliberately reversing the often told story of male executives taking advantage of women. By switching roles, Magdalene highlights just how disturbing and exploitative the dynamic is and challenges listeners to question why these behaviors have been normalized within the industry in the first place. 

Produced by Slush Puppy, known for work with artists including ADÉLA, CORTIS, and Nessa Barrett, the track embraces Magdalene’s commitment to making music that is as proactive as it is entertaining. It’s a song for anyone who refuses to conform to the expectations placed on them, particularly in the music industry. With its sharp satire and boundary-pushing perspective, “Super Lucrative Jukebox Baby” captures Magdalene’s ability to turn discomfort into art while creating pop-rock that refuses to fit neatly into a box.

Uncomfortable by design and impossible to ignore, “Super Lucrative Jukebox Baby” is a perfect introduction to Magdalene’s boundary-pushing approach. She isn’t interested in playing by the rules; she’s interested in asking why the rules exist in the first place.
