Melanie Martinez: finding her voice

Growing up in New York on a musical diet that ranged from Tupac Shakur to The Beatles, Martinez knew from an early age that her dream was to be a singer. After learning to sing from a music teacher at her elementary school, she spent a large part of her childhood at home as she often felt overwhelmed by her own emotions, spending time alone where she would practise music alongside photography and painting. This reputation for being a "crybaby" would later inspire her influential debut album, however, it wasn’t until after teaching herself the guitar and auditioning for US TV show The Voice that her career truly lifted off. She impressed the judges with her version of "Toxic" by Britney Spears and later had a hit with her cover of "Seven Nation Army" by The White Stripes, but did not ultimately win the competition. This was to be a minor setback for Martinez as she had established herself as an exciting and provocative talent to an American and international audience.

Welcome to the world of Cry Baby

After her time as a contestant on The Voice, the singer released her debut album in 2015—a concept release entitled "Cry Baby" that explored a sensitive and dark representation of difficult emotions and relationships. The release was an instant success, drawing comparisons with Lana Del Rey and Lorde and establishing a loyal online fanbase that proceeded to name themselves the "Cry Babies." Her intriguing and unique sound, combining pop with hip-hop and R&B influences, was accompanied by an equally fascinating look, with Martinez often dying her hair for a split-tone effect and wearing fantastical outfits that reference fairy tales and children’s stories. Her brand of twisted pop music continued with her second studio album "K-12" released in 2019. Accompanied by a full-length film and world tour, the album was a huge success that truly put Martinez on the pop music map.
