Unrealistic standards for women are nothing new, whether it is the pursuit of a perfect body, the need to spin countless plates at once, and anything and everything in between, these are things that women have faced and been conditioned to believe they need to achieve for as long as we can remember, and latest Samantha Margret single ‘Dream Girl:’ sees her exploring that idea in cathartic fashion.

With the release of the intense ‘Hot Enough’ earlier in her cycle, Samantha has shown that she is more than capable of weighing in on these issues in an impactful way, and this track is no exception. The haunting mantra of “pretty, charming, helpful, thin, gentle, still, patient, pink” is a constant reminder of the expectations that are placed on women, and the feelings of doubt and insecurity that these ideas cause make for a palpable tension that feels as harrowing as it is engrossing, continuing to establish Samantha as one of the sharpest emerging writers in modern music.
