For anyone asking who is Slayyyter, consider this your go-to summary if you’ve been sleeping this whole time. She’s come so far, and her story is the epitome of an Internet sensation.
Believe it or not, Catherine Grace Garner (her real name) began by making stripped-down, DIY jams on SoundCloud, quickly catching everyone’s attention and building a huge following thanks to her over-the-top style and wild energy.
Furthermore, she drew much of her early musical inspiration from the early-2000s Electro-Pop sound. Now, her recent gems solidify her unique visual aesthetic and creativity.
Is Slayyyter Transgender?
As Slayyyter’s music is so strongly associated with the current Electro-Pop landscape, there has been online speculation about her identity. Let’s clear it up with some straightforward facts: Slayyyter is a bisexual cisgender woman.
The rumors kicked off years ago when Kim Petras accidentally implied she was trans in a since-deleted tweet. Plus, because Slayyyter works closely with trans icons and innovators like producer Ayesha Erotica while rocking a highly stylized “doll” look, her fans turned it into a running joke, affectionately calling her a doll too.
Beyond the jokes, she is an ally who frequently fundraises for LGBTQ+ youth.
The New Album: WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA
Fast forward to today, she drops her third studio album, ‘WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA,’ officially demonstrating she is no longer an underground secret.
The theme of this era is a bop through and through. Serving you vibes reminiscent of Y2K nostalgia, iPod-esc Electro-Pop, and filthy club tracks you scream down the highway to at 2 a.m. Therefore, she’s not chasing trends; she is the trend!
To see how much she has truly elevated her game, look no further than her recent visuals. These two music videos encompass Slayyyter’s most sonically daring era yet.
1. “DANCE…” — Definitivamente, this is a real certified banger that immediately went viral early this year. The production is completely maximalist, packed with hypnotic electronic hooks that live rent-free in your head after just one listen.
Visually speaking, the clip looks like a short movie. I’m loving the choreography and all the scenes, and for good reason, it has surpassed 4 million views.
2. “GAS STATION” — This one also became an instant fan favorite due to its cinematic flair. Visual storytelling is a major staple of her new era, highlighting her insane growth as a songwriter.
You can’t deny that watching this music video feels exactly like a gritty Indie movie. She’s truly an artist with a vision, and the melody does complete justice to the entire project.
