Addison Rae's “Diet Pepsi” is the sleeper hit you didn’t see coming—but should’ve. Yes, you’re nodding your head skeptically, but stick with me. Rae, known for her likable charm, has dabbled in pop before, but this time, with Columbia Records behind her, she’s struck gold. "Diet Pepsi" is slinky, shimmering, and undeniably fun—a sultry anthem to the electric thrill of young love, where hearts race and sparks fly. It sets the lights to dim, creating the perfect ambiance for a late-night vibe. It’s a sound and aesthetic that finally feels like a perfect fit for Addison, earning her the nickname “Lana del Rae” for a reason—this is her most polished effort yet at crafting a mood and nailing it. Here’s a juicy detail: “Diet Pepsi” was co-written and co-produced by Elvira Anderfjärd, the mastermind behind Taylor Swift’s “Message In A Bottle (Taylor's Version)” and The Weeknd’s “Dawn FM.” With that kind of pedigree, Rae isn’t playing around. It might take a few spins to fully click, but trust me, it’s worth it. This track is a winner.
