The haunting video for Kailee Morgue’s viral song “Medusa”, which became the #2 track on Hype Machine just 2 weeks after it’s premiere and was selected Best Track of the Week” by New York Times, Line Of Best Fit, MTV, Coup de Main, and hit #2 on the Canadian viral chart on Spotify. “Medusa” originally premiered on Fader and was produced by CJ Baran [Melanie Martinez, Panic! At the Disco, Carly Rae Jepsen]. It is the first official release by Kailee Morgue.
About the video, Morgue says that she “wanted to show the vulnerability and desperation that radiates in the music… To express that emotion in my first video was a challenge for me but I couldn’t be happier at how it came out and hope the message comes across to my fans.”
The 19-year-old released a snippet of the song via her twitter account and it amassed over 100,000 likes overnight. Morgue’s melody and vocals in the track are hypnotic and heartfelt and the lyrics are powerful.
Morgue casts a spell with her music. The self-proclaimed introvert found solace in the works of musical powerhouses such as Stevie Knicks, Gwen Stefani, Pink Floyd, and Led Zepplelin. The 19-year-old tattooed, green-haired, anime-obsessed, gothic siren is destined to be a monumental voice of the generation.
