Ava Max – OMG What’s Happening

Ava Max is on the verge of setting pop music aflame with a fresh sense of spunk and an unrequited attitude. “OMG What’s Happening,” the latest single from the songstress’ highly anticipated forthcoming album Heaven & Hell, finally gives fans the material they’ve been yearning for since her summer smash hit “Sweet But Psycho.” Due September 18th, the record will boast a respectable 15 tracks split into three distinct sections: Heaven (Side A), Purgatory, and Hell (Side B).

“OMG What’s Happening” upholds the catchy, feminine sound grown signature to Max’s style since her debut in 2018. Still a foot-tapping sing-along sure to be a karaoke go-to, listeners will find the singer exploring an emotional whirlwind in a slew of poignant lyrics throughout the track. “So I did everything to push you all away, and finally you left, and now I’m missing you like crazy, and I cry, no I can’t sleep alone tonight” she begs from verse to verse.

Rather quirky and upbeat for an ode to loneliness, the single offers an unexpectedly fresh take on what would be assumed a painful, provocative ballad. While any other pop princess may produce a longing track spewing with sentiment and heartache, it’s no surprise we can always rely on Max to produce a record encouraging fans to dance it out. Who says breakups are all about curling up in bed and crying over a pint of ice cream? Max wants us to channel our inner Taylor Swift’s and “Shake It Off” on the floor with her newest music.
