Fresh off the success of POPSTAR, SpiceKick and So Smart, Magi Merlin shares pixxxie, a song that conjures pop and sets it free. The track is a liberation of women from the male gaze, sung ironically from the perspective of the “manic pixie dream girl”. Here, Magi's singing is tactile, arranged in such a way that it comes flying at the listener from every direction. It features a deliciously devastating synth line and poignant production, boasting the raw power that Magi has come to embody with this forthcoming project. This is the final single from her debut album, POWER HOUSE, available on all digital platforms on July 10th, 2026.
Female characters in film are often reduced to this trope, simply a device used to further the plot of the male protagonist, Magi explains. This is a role and, at its worst, an expectation many men in real life will cast onto their female counterparts. The only function of women in their eyes is being a sexual object or a tool to aid them in their growth. With pixxxie, Magi Merlin reminds us that this pernicious ideal is not merely a product of man-made fiction, but a reflection of our society.
Magi Merlin will be touring both Europe and North America this summer and fall, including freshly announced headline dates in Montreal, Toronto and London, as well as a performance at Rock en Seine (Paris).
