X Factor Alum Phoenix Melody Debuts Summer Bop “Be the One”

Summer is right around the corner! If you haven’t already got your beach playlist ready, then Phoenix Melody‘s “Be the One” is a great place to start.

Phoenix first appeared on the Australian version of The X Factor in 2013 (where she reached the semi-finals) and “Be the One” is Phoenix‘s first proper offering as a solo artist since her stint on the show. Unlike the Dua Lipa bop of the same name, Phoenix‘s “Be the One” is a seductive mingling of Afrobeats rhythms and a murky synth bass, which escalate to “Be the One”’s massive club-ready chorus. “My music really reflects my personality. I’m laid-back, but also super outgoing,” the Sydney based beaut remarked on her sound, which definitely comes through in “Be the One”.

Despite the single’s tragic artwork, Phoenix definitely has a smash on her hands with “Be the One”!
