Big World 02:43
I don’t wanna think about my boyfriend I’m not gonna wonder where he is To be honest All I want is A reason to stay in Maybe it’ll rain tonight Good excuse to stay inside Hoping it will keep raining in the morning All I wanna do is stay home All I wanna do is take care of myself I’m gonna try my new face mask I don’t need to worry about my hair I just wanna stay inside Take a couple pics in the mirror Put on my best pair of underwear Hide from the big world and the big problems All I wanna do is take care of myself I don’t wanna think about my boyfriend I’m just gonna watch someone else’s life on television Maybe have a good cry with Meredith I swear she could find a better guy outside of the doctor’s office All I wanna do is stay home All I wanna do is take care of myself I’m gonna try my new face mask I don’t need to worry about my hair I just wanna stay inside Take a couple cute pics in the mirror Hang out w my best friend Meredith Hide from the big world and the big problems All I wanna do is take care of myself All I wanna do is stay home All I wanna do is take care of myself Gonna try my new face mask I don’t need to worry about my hair I think I’m gonna stay inside Take a couple cute pics in the mirror Put on my best pair of underwear Hide from the big world and the big problems All I wanna do is take care of myself

Gay 03:26
Mommy issues, daddy issues (that’s what made me gay) Beer drinkin, too much thinkin Camera action, dark room happenings (that’s what made me) Grandma’s basement, still life pictures (that’s what made me) Church choir, hollywood tower (that’s what made me gay) Solo hiking, streams and mountains Beautiful person, am I the worst one ? Solo hiking through streams and mountains I’m looking up and tripping over my feet Don’t really care if I fall into something as long as it’s not what I’m afraid I might be Something you don’t want me to be Grimy clutches, hidden touches I’m sorry mother, sorry grandfather (Solo hiking through streams and mountains I’m looking up and tripping over my feet Don’t really care if I fall into something as long as it’s not what I’m afraid I might be) Cuz I just am this way I just am this way Hard to pick one, there is none I just am this way

Bonsai 02:16
I am a fire burning all I see Taught my friends to stay away from me I’m blowing it Blowing it I am an ocean drowning everything A riptide coming when you least expect I will suck you in You feel that wind on the back of your neck? I am the force that’s behind it I push you away But you knew that about me I let my bonsai die The one that you gave to me I won’t throw it out I like what it is reminding So love me like you did Touch me like you did Just a little bit Love me like you did Touch me like you did Just a little bit, let me live in my dreams again Love me like you did Touch me like you did Just a little bit, let me live in my dreams again

Give You Up 03:15
Making to-do lists with nothing to do Walked the dogs around the park, it’s not as fun without you Wandered ‘round the house in my underwear again I think the neighbor saw, guess you’ll have to talk to them from now on Trying so hard not to think too much Being alone isn’t as fun as I thought it was Used to think the freedom thing would be enough But fuck it if it means that I’m giving you up, girl Don’t wanna give you up Don’t wanna give you up, girl Don’t wanna give you up, girl Don’t wanna give you up, girl Don’t wanna give you up Not gonna give you up, girl Avoiding the mirror, only look at my phone Waiting for a text message to let me know what you’re thinking of Pretend to be okay, say I’m staying busy counting down the minutes Trying so hard not to think too much Being alone isn’t as fun as I thought it was Used to think the freedom thing would be enough But fuck it if it means that I’m giving you up, girl Don’t wanna give you up Never gonna give you up, girl Don’t wanna give you up Never gonna give you up, girl Don’t wanna give you up Never gonna give you up, girl

about

Video games, relationships, gradient sunsets and self-realization… Cop Kid’s Greatest Hits Volume 2 is an endless summer on stereo. Simultaneously confessional and universal, the five track debut is a combination of crushing insight into the 2021 anxiety psyche and a tribute to the nostalgia of doing nothing. Tripping between melancholia and optimism, with the mood shifted by either by a particularly emotive episode of Grey’s Anatomy, or the bittersweetness of falling in love, then broaching queer identity with parents, grandparents, and society in general…

Cop Kid is Boone and Marny, former frenemies who crossed paths as solo artists in the music scene in their Utah town, before bonding when one needed the other to help them out of a musical bind. Marny sings, Boone produces as they find the common ground between Sonic the Hedgehog soundtracks and post-internet pop. The resultant collage of raw vocals and trampolining bass beats captures the intimacy of bedroom pop without the introversion, breaking free from the four walls to make it as far as the beach or into the city.

“It’s the soundtrack to the inevitable quarter-life crisis: simultaneously recognizing the world is so much bigger than you, while still being hyper-focused on your own shit,” say Marny and Boone about the record. That idea is crystallized in the debut single, “Big World”, a pop anthem for staying home hoping it’ll rain, that hides a self-aware exploration of the blurred lines between self-care and self-isolation. The protagonist is wracked by the choice between streaming services, face masks and security or the big world and its infinite pitfalls, demons and emotional peril - like a Sega platform game. With one piece of electro artpop, Cop Kid sets the tone for an introductory record that draws from all the memories, thoughts, locations and internal conflicts in the back of your mind and the archived photographs on your cell phone.
