"Pop Emergency" (Styled as 'Pop Emergency!') is the 5th studio album released by The Chickmunk Girls set to be released on July 1, 2020 following a nearly 7 year hiatus. The controversial girl group formed back in 2009 and were famously known for their quirky pop sound and controversial artworks which set them apart from your standard girl group. The group's previous label went into bankruptcy forcing the girls to remain on a hiatus until their contracts expired in 2019. While keeping their same management the girls went on to sign a new record deal with independent record label Hot Eye Records on January 2020 and immediately began work on their new album.

Background

The girl group who was famously known for their #1 hits "Ego Trippin" and "Don't Stop (Give Me Techno)" and "The Game feat. Stephanie Ortiz" is making a return with all of its original 3 vocalists and 3 back up dancers. The group is also for their racy and highly controversial artwork "Pinocchio" which earned the group one of the biggest fines in the music industry after it was aired during a Super Bowl promotional ad. The group first broke on the scene in 2009 and managed to release three studio albums together before going on an indefinite hiatus. After many years, fans speculated that the group had broken up. With no official press release confirming this information fans were left frustrated and abandoned without updates for years. Their manager Alicia Zimmerman confirmed in a recent interview that the girl group's previous contract had ended and with busy schedules and their previous label crumbling apart they were never able to get a new music contract in the works. The girls were also not allowed to talk about their hiatus for 7 years according to their contracts. The girl group was reunited by Stephanie Fierce who signed the group for a two album deal with Hot Eye Records in January 2020. The 12 million dollar deal will allow the girls to give their fans high budget music videos and quality records. .

The lead single chosen off the album is "Poison" and it's set to be released June 12, 2020. All of the main three girls partook in the writing process of the album with assistance from Stephanie Fierce and Daniel The Freenerd. The production team involved the likes of Rock Mafia, Kathy, Daniel The Freenerd, BloodPop, Max Martin

"I think we've all evolved as women. We honestly have never been the cookie cutter pop girl band. We've always done things differently and always took a different approach in terms of sound. But honestly this record is probably more poppier than our previous records even though we've kept the Chickmunk touch in there somewhere. The ultimate goal of this record is to sound like you're getting a constant adrenaline rush through the music which inspired the name Pop Emergency. Also in pop music culture the term "Pop Emergency" means when a pop artist is about to release a new record when things have been dull and boring therefore causing a pop emergency"- Kathy

"I feel that in most of our albums we've had the fair share of singing. I don't think there's like a dominating member but on this album each one of us got an opportunity to have a dominating track which is exciting because that provides the opportunity for each one of us to shine on our own. Many of our songs don't have cookie cutter names and that's what I love about what we do. I have to say though that Poison is probably the most mainstream you'll hear us out of all the song we've released thus far." - Shanti

"I'm just trying to dance my doughnut fat off" - Olivia.

"it's a music industry crisis
turning on up all of the sirens,
she don't function through all of the silence
dancing so hard but don't get sweaty
going through all of the emotional phases
dance in a crowd full of pretty faces
but she feels so empty
singing on the top of her voice
feels like she don't have a choice

I...rather just die
rather die
call the the ambulance
oooh oooh
I...rather just die
rather die
call the the ambulance
oooh oooh
she feels the urgency for need,
pop emergency
she feels a urgency for need
Pop emergency
Pop Emergency
Pop pop pop emergency


she's obsessed with that rhythm pushing through her veins
urge for the beat she feels she just can't retain
