Demi Lovato, "I Love Me" [Photo Credit: Island]Grammy-nominated pop artist Demi Lovato provides a lift to Terrific Tuesday with her uplifting, self-loving anthem, โ€œI Love Me.โ€

After taking a โ€œLโ€ on Monday, Terrific Tuesday seems to be an ideal, perfect way to rebound.ย  Go on and โ€œBrush the dirt off your shouldersโ€ and absolutely kill it on Tuesday.ย  How are we going to kill it this particular Tuesday, March 31, 2020? ย Weโ€™re going to love ourselves, damn it! Specifically, weโ€™re going to love ourselves vicariously through the Demi Lovato bop, โ€œI Love Meโ€.

On โ€œI Love Meโ€, the Grammy-nominated pop artist moves towards a much better place, committed to loving herself. โ€œI Love Meโ€ is a strong pop single that features sleek, energetic production work, courtesy of Oak, Keith Sorrells, and Alex Nice. Stylistically, it encompasses elements of both electronic music and R&B, while being idiomatic of pop. Lovato, who has the pipes to pull off any style, has been quite accomplished in the urban-pop lane. Her vocals are the biggest selling point, while she mixes playful, feisty, and profane moments with moments where she shoots straight bullets with her piercing, upper register ad-libs.

Empowerment โ€“ embracing self-love โ€“ is the biggest takeaway.ย  This is definitely fuel for Tuesdayโ€™s fire. โ€œโ€˜Cause Iโ€™m a black belt when Iโ€™m beating up on myself / But Iโ€™m an expert at giving love to somebody else,โ€ she sings on the pre-chorus, continuing, โ€œI, me, myself, and I donโ€™t see eye to eye / Me, myself and I.โ€ย  Potent and relatable, period.ย  On the chorus, she expounds further, as she works beyond being โ€œmy own worst criticโ€ and towards โ€œโ€ฆWhen I love me is enough.โ€ Ultimately, she slays, keeping it 100, balancing a relatable message and an infectious pop gem.
