Hey, music crew! Romania’s got a new star on the rise, and her name’s Maddie. Dropping “Cruel Intentions” as the lead single from her debut EP, she’s here to shake up the dance pop scene with a fresh, high-energy vibe that’s got a nostalgic twist. This track’s a bold opener—blending Romania’s iconic popcorn sound with a modern commercial edge that’s ready to light up playlists everywhere. Maddie’s bringing her A-game, and I’m stoked to dive into this one with you—let’s hit play!
The Sound, The Spark, The Swagger
“Cruel Intentions” struts in with a pulsing dance pop beat that grabs you from the first note—think snappy rhythms and glossy synths that scream radio-ready fun. Maddie’s voice is the real deal—crisp, confident, and dripping with personality, carrying a melody that’s catchy enough to stick after one spin. There’s a nod to Romania’s popcorn legacy here—those staccato, upbeat vibes that ruled the 2000s—but she flips it with a 2025 polish, layering in slick production and a vibe that’s equal parts nostalgic and now. It’s commercial without feeling cookie-cutter, a track that’s built for dancing but leaves you humming long after.
Maddie’s a Bucharest Conservatory grad and music teacher by day, but by night, she’s crafting a sound that’s all her own. “Cruel Intentions” sets the stage for her debut EP, promising a mix of vibrant tracks that showcase her knack for blending fresh rhythms with Romania’s dance music roots. She’s aiming to redefine the genre, and this single’s a killer first step—think Inna’s early hits meets a modern twist that could rival global pop acts. Dance pop’s always had a home in Romania, and Maddie’s here to carry the torch into a new era. Check it out below and feel the energy!
