Get ready for Sky Ferreira’s ‘Ghost’ EP

I wasn’t so blown away by Sky Ferreira‘s “Red Lips” reinvention, but you best believe that I’m feenin’ for her upcoming Ghost EP.

The 5-track set drops on October 16, and the music video for promotional track “Everything is Embarrassing” was released earlier this week through Pitchfork (coz Sky’s indie now, remember?).

If the flaw-free spacey sound of “Everything is Embarrassing” reminds you of a certain Knowles sister’s recent comeback track, then that’s because both tunes were produced by Dev Hynes. Yeah, they’re super similar, but there’s no denying that both “Everything Is Embarrassing” and “Losing You” are certified wig snatchers. Just think of them as the alt-pop versions of “TiK ToK” and “California Gurls”. (but for the record, “Everything is Embarrassing” is totally way better.)

The music video for Ghost‘s official single “Sad Dream” is scheduled to drop the same day as the EP. No specific details on the track have been revealed yet, but Sky’s worked on Ghost with Fiona Apple collaborator Jon Brion, indie singer-songwriter Cass McCombs, Greg Kurstin, and Ariel Rechtshaid (Charli XCX, No Doubt, Usher), so you know it’s gonna be good.

Get excited.

    I’m excited for her, but I don’t see her becoming the huge superstar she wants to be. I hope her album comes out with a game changing single and I’m proven wrong.

    While she looks grogeous, the video is a straight snooze-fest. I’d take Losing You, the video & the song over this any day. The EP should prove to be an interesting listen though…

    I love this song! It’s so catchy and laid back. But then again the video is so boring! Don’t blame it on the low budget, because Sky made lots of friends in this creative industry. She could’ve done better!

    Don’t know which song I love more, this or “Losing You”, both great tunes. But Solange deff has the winner on the video part!
