“Name a more iconic duo than / A twink and a redhead.” Hmm 🤔, can’t think of any at the moment Grant & Ash.  Can you figure out which is the twink and which is the redhead 👩‍🦰 🤭? Grant Gibbs is the twink, while Ashley Gill is the redhead. Fittingly, the multitalented duo named this ‘should-be-utterly-cringe’ pop song “A Twink and a Redhead”.  It’s not cringe though. A bop has been served and the pop gods said, ‘It was good!’ 😇 🙏

pride heart burst“A Twink and a Redhead” is entertaining from the start.  That is an understatement! It is sleekly produced (Drew Louis) and idiomatic of modern pop. The aesthetic is giving #fabulous – fitting for both a twink and a redhead, like okurr! Grant & Ash both wrote this ‘take it with a grain of salt’ song with Louis.  Depth is not the modus operandi, but slaying – YAAAS, they excel at that sugar honey iced tea! This commentary on the single is silly because the song is silly! “There’s just two kinds of personalities / There’s the real and there’s the fake,” Ash sings in the first verse, with Grant responding sassily, “Pick one, just pick one.” He sings the pre-chorus, stating “It’s simply science.” Ash piques our interest in the second verse, not because of her reference to the Illiad.  “Hot people, with hot personalities / Tight pussy and huge cock…” Whoa! In the second pre-chorus, Grant gets his in too – Twink death and a soulless redhead…  Maybe his most memorable moment: “You’re the only bitch I’d go straight for.” She must be the shit… The music video ups the ante.  It makes you appreciate this novel song even more.  Plus, Grant looks fabulous in that crop top – just saying 🥵! *Cues up THAT’S HOT* If you need a carefree, fabulous, and fun bop, look no further than “A Twink and a Redhead”.  This duo is ICONIC!
