When seventeen-year-old Carlie Hanson released her debut track, "Why Did You Lie", in August, we were getting really strong future-pop-star vibes. The song was one of the year's best, and her follow-up, "Only One", received a co-sign from Taylor Swift on its way to several million Spotify streams. This week now, the buzzing Wisconsin native is back with her third single, "Us", and it has the type of ambitious pop that will only continue to catapult her to the top. If you aren't hip to Carlie yet, be sure to get familiar, cause she's ready to join Sigrid, Maggie Rogers, and Billie Eilish as one of pop's stars.
