Olivia Rodrigo, American singer and songwriter, has topped the charts continuously with her astonishing pop music. After the young artist released her first album Sour, winning 3 Grammys and 10 billion streams on Spotify, she was labeled as Best New Artist and a rising star in the music industry. 

The 39 minute album full of pop/r&b songs has a wide range of emotion and explains Rodrigo’s story of heartbreak and maturing. Her 6th track, making the bed, talks about taking accountability while her 10th track, the grudge, expresses the constant pain a toxic relationship can cause. Many teens or young adults can use these songs to help understand more about themselves. 

Rodrigo is now the youngest artist in history to produce three number 1 singles. 11 out of 12 songs on the album charted top 30 on the Billboard 100 and Guts now remains the #1 album in 16 countries. 


Rodrigo produces music that has a strong message while still keeping the lyrics captivating and snappy. Her songwriting skills have been proven to be unmatched for someone at her age by creating powerful imagery for someone who relates to her story.
