Untitled

Bubblebath is the debut extended play (EP) by American pop singer and YouTube personality That Poppy, released digitally on February 12, 2016 through Island Records.

Composition

Bubbebath carries a pop sound,[3] while incorporating elements of ska-pop and punk.[2] The track opens up with "Lowlife," a reggae song that serves as her first single.[4] "Money" and "Altar" are described as "retro-bangers."[4] "American Kids" lyrically talks about millennial stereotypes. Popular TV described the song as the "antithesis to Halsey's "New Americana," but "just as anthemic."[2] Poppy claims the EP's name came from the idea that the world was dirty and would benefit from a bubblebath.[5]

Critical reception

Tyler Peterson of UQMUSIC gave the EP a positive review, calling it a "little collection of some major millennial masterpieces." He further wrote: "Blazing full force with her Electra-Heart-meets-Princess-Peach persona, That Poppy is demonstrating some serious staying power with her committed visual and sonic aesthetics."[4]

Singles

"Lowlife" was released as a single on July 24, 2015. PopularTV has described the track as one that "will make you want to break out your old checkered Vans and hang with the skater boys."[6] "Lowlife" was later featured on the compilation album Now That's What I Call Music! 58 in the United States, and a version of the track featuring rapper Travis Mills was released under Island Records in April 2016[7] and has received airplay on BBC Radio.[8] A music video for the song was released in July 2015, premiering on Teen Vogue.[9] In September 2016, "Lowlife" was nominated for a Tiger Beat "19 Under 19" Award for "Most Influential Song".[10]

In July 2016, Poppy released "Money" as a single along with a music video for the track, which kept a similar tone to her YouTube videos.[11][12] "Money" was used in the television show Scream during the debut episode of the second season, "I Know What You Did Last Summer",[13] and was also used for the video game The Sims 4, on the "Tween Pop" radio station for the Kids Room Stuff pack.[citation needed]
