Artist Check: Neon Hitch [Alternative Pop]



Jesse J meets Lady Gaga meets Kreyshawn meets Ellie Goulding. An Intresting mix yes? well thats how I would describe British dance-pop singer Neon Hitch. Hailing from London, this nitty gritty diva has come to the Pop scene with an alternative approach.
A lot of people don’t seem to care about Neon Hitch, but you know what I say to that? I say that I don’t care about people who don’t care about Neon Hitch, because this bitch is fierce and you lessors will deal.

Because Neon is so edgy, unique, awesome etc, she’s gone and covered Wiz Khalifa’s “On My Level”, complete with an artsy hood music video to match. Neon’s switched up the beat from Khalifa’s original, but it’s still completely urban — she didn’t flip the song upside down or anything.



If you’ve been following Neon for a while, then you’d know that she’s been doing killer covers and mashups on Youtube for years. Her best is the gorgeous Sia/Mike Posner mash, which currently stands as one of the most watched clips on her Youtube channel. Check out below one her more original pop songs.

However, here is where she gets me. She returns on the backdrops of NYC with a new cover, this time covering Kreayshawn’s claim to fame single, ”Gucci Gucci.” Not as eccentric as the original, but the minimalist approach in sound is still quite impressive. This one has been on repeat the last week or two. Also check her cover on Mr. Miller's Donald Trump.
