Zara Larsson’s ‘Midnight Sun: Girls Trip’ delivers a divine feminine-fueled remix collection
Zara Larsson’s evolving pop identity shines through a remix project with Shakira, Kehlani, PinkPantheress, and Tyla.
Zara Larsson’s ‘Midnight Sun: Girls Trip’ arrives as a remix collection that reframes her pop catalogue through a distinctly feminine lens, featuring a roster of global collaborators. The project reshapes familiar tracks while celebrating collaboration.
Larson has steadily evolved from a breakout Swedish pop star into one of the more consistent voices in global pop. Over the years, she’s had chart-ready singles with a growing sense of artistic control as she continues to flourish. The rollout of this album came through a phone call between Paris Hilton and Zara, leaning into a Barbie-inspired aesthetic that resonates with the project.
Paris deemed Zara her favorite Swedish princess in a playful promo moment, sets the tone for the era. It frames the project through a playful, girl-pop aesthetic that aligns closely with the music’s energy. The featured lineup is a big part of why it works.
Girls Trip brings together heavy-hitting icons like Shakira, Tyla, Kehlani, and PinkPantharess, each contribute their own flair to the remix collection. Each of the women joining Zara has their own distinct sound and style, with careers that have helped shape pop culture and push forward genre-defining sounds in their own lane.
Larsson’s rise has always been tied to performance as much as her music. Alongside her catalog of polished pop records, she has built a reputation for choreography-heavy sets. Across many viral live moments, often bringing fans on stage to perform her signature dance sequences mid-show.
There’s a sense of continuity of the Midnight Sun concept itself, suggesting the era doesn’t really end. Instead of closing the chapter, Zara leans into a lineup of powerhouse female vocalists, using their combined presence to push the momentum even further.
