Lost Girl has finally unveiled EGO, the highly awaited 10 track EP that sees the Reading singer songwriter dive headfirst into heartbreak, jealousy, insecurity, sexual liberation and the messy business of becoming someone new. After building serious anticipation with her cinematic announcement trailer and singles including D2F, NO LOVE and ROMEO, Lost Girl delivers a project that feels intimate, experimental and, occasionally, like a very stylish emotional breakdown.

Across EGO, trap, R&B, electro and Jersey club inspired sounds collide to create an immersive world that feels like stepping directly into Lost Girl’s head. WILD, D2F and LUST turn up the temperature with sensual, moody songwriting, while PRETTY LIAR brings euphoric energy with lyrics that reveal a much more complicated emotional picture underneath. Then there is PINK CROCS/CRASH, an infectious Jersey club inspired moment that injects a playful burst of energy into the project and proves Lost Girl is not here to sit comfortably in one genre.

The emotional weight really lands on WHAT WOULD YOU DO, ROMEO and SOME NIGHTS, where Lost Girl’s expansive vocals and honest writing make every feeling feel refreshingly close to the surface. Her ability to turn personal experiences into catchy, memorable records is one of EGO’s biggest strengths.

Lost Girl also takes co production credits on NO EGO, PINK CROCS, NO LOVE and WHAT WOULD YOU DO, showing that her creative input stretches beyond the microphone. She describes EGO as the story of the identity she created to protect herself after losing faith in love, calling it her definition of alternative R&B, with influences from The Weeknd’s early House of Balloons era.

With over 12 million global streams, more than half a million TikTok followers and support from BBC 1Xtra, BBC Introducing, Pandora, Hunger Magazine, Notion and CLASH, Lost Girl is already making serious noise. EGO feels like another big step forward: vulnerable, bass heavy, melodic and full of personality. It is emotional chaos, but make it catchy.
