“An absolute banger” – V Magazine
New York via China and Harajuku avant-pop multi-hyphenate Alice Longyu Gao today releases the music video for her Dylan Brady-produced experimental pop anthem “Rich Bitch Juice.”
Speaking to The FADER about the new video full of colorful Harajuku aesthetic and distorted facial features, Alice says “I am not really into the idea of looking like myself. I think it’s because of my eating disorder and body dysmorphia, but also not trying to look hot or cute makes me excited, therefore we played with distorting my physical appearance. I think music is a great platform to explore a futuristic me.”
