Ah, bring on Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥! Wait – it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot 🥵 at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo, and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. We are talking about that after-dark type $hi†, ya dig? These risqué, unapologetic records often raise eyebrows and temperature alike. In the 67th edition of Midnight Heat (2024), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind, “caroline” by Artemas.

Artemas, yustyna [📷: Artemas]“Caroline, you should break up with your girl / For the night, let me fucking rock your world.” Say what, Artemas (Artemas Diamandis)? The keyword from those excerpted lyrics from “Caroline” is fucking.  Yes.  The English-Cypriot alt-pop singer, songwriter, and producer is sexed up throughout his alluring, 2024 mixtape, yustyna.  With songs like “wet dreams”, “ride me darling”, and “mess of me, sexually”, sex is a big deal.  It’s no different in “Caroline,” written and produced by Diamandis, Toby Daintree, and Kevin White. The backdrop kicks ass and takes names.  It’s the banging beat, electrifying synths, and prominent bass line.

I have questions, Mr. Diamandis! It appears she’s bisexual. “A tidal wave / I like it when you’re in my face,” he sings in the first verse, continuing, “Just like the way you ride her face / Problem is, I like the taste, you like this pace.” Hmm… He adds in the same verse, “Bitches love a broken heart.” Another, hmm… The rendezvous (cheating) is pronounced in the second verse. “I can feel you getting close / You been trying not to, but since you took off your clothes,” he sings, adding, naughtily, “You don’t have to tell no one, you tell ‘em anyway / You think that I’m famous way you’re screaming out my name (Caroline).” The naughty artist admits he likes the fact that she’s a cheater and sadly, advocates it.  While I’m looking at Artemas with a side-eye (you little freak, you 😈), “Caroline” is a fucking bop (sorry, I couldn’t resist 🤭). Mr. Diamandis’ sexcapades are sus, but his music, including his playful vocals with various effects, is a must!
