Top 10 Best Hyperpop Artists and Bands

SOPHIE

Sophie Xeon (September 17, 1986 - January 30, 2021), best known as SOPHIE, was a Scottish music producer, songwriter, and DJ.

She was best known for her work with artists such as Charli XCX, A.G. Cook, Madonna, and Kim Petras, and for helping to define the hyperpop genre.... read more

No one will ever match Sophie. She literally produced music for so many artists and defined the microgenre. Her fall was very tragic. R.I.P. Sophie (1986-2021).

She pioneered the microgenre by fusing EDM genres such as techno with pop genres. A.G. Cook was originally involved in the label PC Music, and Charli XCX was also involved in early production. However, Sophie was the true pioneer in developing the microgenre in its true form, earning her the title of the godmother of hyperpop.
She influenced countless artists with her style, and the genre dominated music, including collaborating with the queen of pop, Madonna, to produce the song Bitch I'm Madonna. Hyperpop has become one of the most popular styles lately, pushing the boundaries of dance music. Sophie became the transgender queen of pop for her achievements, helping to shape much of modern music of the 2010s and the start of the 2020s.
Sadly, her life was cut short due to a fall from her roof while trying to get a better view of the Moon after its full phase. Her death on January 30, 2021, changed the history of music forever. She was 34. There will never be another transgender queen of pop nor a hyperpop or original producer like her. She created a completely new and original style of music, and now that she's gone, all the artists who made original music styles are now extinct. January 30, 2021, was the day music really died. R.I.P. Sophie Xeon (1986-2021).

She dominated hyperpop and all of pop music for years. She was even featured in Icona Pop's I Love It and Iggy Azalea's Fancy. She's the princess of hyperpop for a reason, and her work wouldn't have been possible without the help of Sophie Xeon (R.I.P.).
She continued to stay strong until Sophie's death, and ever since then, her return to music involved a more common pop style, including dance pop. Her glory days were left behind by Sophie's loss. R.I.P. Sophie Xeon (1986-2021).

Charli XCX is seriously underrated. Her music is well-produced and super fun to listen to. I love the direction she took with her music, incorporating a more futuristic sound.

One of the most popular female artists lately, another hyperpop princess, Kim Petras, played hyperpop and introduced other styles of pop. She's also electro and has plenty of music. But ever since Sophie Xeon's death, her style changed to more common pop and even introduced hip hop with her latest music. R.I.P. Sophie.
