"OK, first of all, if you haven&amp;#x27;t heard of 24-year-old Canadian dream-pop artist, Claire Boucher aka Grimes, here&amp;#x27;s some fantastic things you need to know for some backstory: 1. Mariah Carey is her favorite singer. 2. Grimes has designed a line of rings inspired by the vulva. 3. She directs her own music videos; she made THIS awesome jam. AND THIS ONE. Listen, darlings. All things considered, Grimes was way overdue for a Morning Jam. And new single &amp;quot;Genesis&amp;quot; (from Visions, out now) proves why: For one, the song&amp;#x27;s got a downright nasty synthline coursing through its skeletal structure. It&amp;#x27;s accented by oddities (is that an ocarina? where did that echo-y piano come from?) that give it more of a pulse. And Grimes&amp;#x27; voice, all high and frilly like Mariah&amp;#x27;s, put through a reverbial haze, brings the song fully to life. Also, this video (which she also directed): can we please discuss how it looks like a postmodern standoff between Britney (python and schoolgirl pigtails) and Gaga (makeshift cyborg)? Let us also get into Grimes&amp;#x27; hot-pink dreads and manicured claws. She&amp;#x27;s kind of the queen for this. And that&amp;#x27;s the Morning Jam for your toast, darlings. What do y&amp;#x27;all think of Grimes? More music for your morning... *9 Reality TV Stars Who&amp;#x27;ve Made the Leap to Music *Morning Jam: &amp;quot;Gold&amp;quot; *Commit Yourselves to Jessie Ware&amp;#x27;s Devotion!
