JoJo Siwa Indulges in Her ‘Guilty Pleasure’ on New EP: Stream It Now



If you were looking for more “gay pop” songs, then JoJo Siwa has you covered.

On Friday (July 12), the former Dance Moms star dropped her debut EP, Guilty Pleasure. Out via Columbia Records, the new project features five tracks including the previously released viral single “Karma,” and the EP’s new title track and focus single, “Guilty Pleasure.”

Siwa also previously teased one of the songs on her new project, “Choose Ur Fighter,” in a since-deleted Instagram video. Speaking about the promotion cycle for her EP, Siwa admitted that she hadn’t expected the amount of backlash she received. “For the last few weeks the world has been f–king brutal,” she said.” “They’ve been talking so much s–t … but I don’t give a f–k.”

In a viral interview with Billboard back in April, Siwa spoke about how she approached her music career, claiming that she had “created” a new genre “called gay pop.” The singer faced immediate criticism, as music fans claimed that Siwa was far from the first queer person to make music expressly for queer people. In a later clarification, the singer agreed that she did not create the genre of “gay pop,” but added that she was invested in its success.

“I am not the inventor of gay pop, for sure not. But I do want to be a piece of making it bigger than it already is. I want to bring more attention to it,” she said. “I’m not the president [of gay pop], but I might be the CEO, or the CMO. I can be the CMO, the chief marketing officer, and use my marketing tactics whether people like it or not”
