Lily Allen - Hard Out HereLily Allen – Hard Out Here

It has been a long time coming but Lily Allen has finally made her return to the music industry, on Saturday John Lewis released their spectacular yearly Xmas advert which this year featured music of Lily Allen covering the classic Keane song ‘Somewhere Only We Know’ and now on days on Lily Allen has unleashed her proper come back single ‘Hard Out Here’.

‘Hard Out Here’ is a welcome return to form for Lily Allen, the lyrics are well written and extremely witty and see’s Allen make fun out of the sexiest music industry and artists who feel they have to get naked and shake their arse to sell records, the song opens with Allen singing “I suppose I should tell you what this bitch is thinking you’ll find me in the studio and not in the kitchen I won’t be bragging ‘bout my cars or talking ‘bout my chains don’t need to shake my ass for you ‘cause I’ve Got a brain” whilst the chorus see’s Allen use a bitch of auto tune as she repeatedly sings “It’s hard out here for a bitch”, musically the song is extremely catchy and is bound to go straight to number one however I wish the radios luck in editing the word bitch out of the song as it is featured a hell of a lot of times.

It is great to have Lily Allen back making music as she is one of the most hard hitting and honest female singers around and the single ‘Hard Out Here’ and the video that goes with it are just great and I can’t wait to see what the next few months have in store when it comes to here music.

5/5
