Porter Robinson Debuts New Single and Music Video ‘Cheerleader’
Grammy-nominated artist Porter Robinson returns with new single and music video, “Cheerleader.” Video directed by Hugh Mulhern (winner, 2023 UKMVA Best New Director) and creative-directed by Bradley & Pablo (Harry Styles, Dua Lipa, Rosalía) (via Mom+Pop)—watch it here. The action packed music video is an outburst of vibrancy and emotion scene after scene, and presents Porter front-and-center, realizing his truest, most gripping performance to date. “When I got back in the studio for ‘Cheerleader’, I asked: what would be something that people could love with zero context — just instantaneous, universal, explosive connection? ‘Cheerleader’ is my take on bottling that feeling,” says Robinson. Sung, written, recorded, and produced by Robinson, “Cheerleader” is a buzzy pop anthem with a blistering synth line and shout-along chorus that will entice day-one fans and new audiences alike. It is the latest addition to Porter’s decade-plus prestige catalog that includes 2014 debut album Worlds, and The FADER’s #1 best album of 2021 Nurture. “Porter Robinson is no stranger to reinvention,” – ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY “Euphoric pop,” – PITCHFORK
