In this episode of The Track Record, we sit down with Aditya to write a love letter, full of questions, chaos, and care, to the one and only Chappell Roan.
Together, we trace her evolution from Kayleigh to Midwest Princess, exploring how she builds queer fantasy through music that feels both ultra-specific and universally felt. We talk personas, pedestal politics, and what it means to make joy feel radical.
Where does Chappell Roan really sit in the current pop landscape? Why do so many queer fans see themselves in her? And how do we hold space for artists who are still learning out loud?
If you’ve ever screamed “Good Luck, Babe!” like a prayer or found yourself dancing through your feelings in something unhinged and glittery, this one’s for you.
