Bruklin isn’t just another rising pop star trying to catch a fleeting wave of fame—she’s crafting the currents that are reshaping the genre itself. With her latest single, Daydreaming, the New York-born sensation flips the script on her own sound, offering a track that feels both intimately personal and universally anthemic. Clocking over 2 million views on YouTube within days of its music video release, it’s clear Bruklin’s ability to mesmerize listeners isn’t slowing down, with only 4 singles out, her Spotify has seen over 2 million streams and in the hundreds of thousands of monthly listeners.
In Daydreaming, Bruklin leans into emotional complexity, channeling the ache of unfulfilled love and the bittersweet taste of self-realization. Yet, what could easily slip into melancholy instead emerges as a layered celebration of resilience. The chorus, a masterstroke of infectious melody and bold vocals, is emblematic of Bruklin’s style—confident, relatable, and undeniably catchy. It’s the kind of song that doesn’t just sit on your playlist; it imprints itself in your mind, as if inviting listeners to hit replay endlessly
Brulin’s accompanying music video, a surreal visual journey through abstract landscapes, has cemented itself as a key piece of the single’s allure. With Bruklin standing out in a vivid red coat against faceless figures, the imagery reinforces her message of individuality and non-conformity. There’s an artful tension between fantasy and reality that echoes the song’s themes, and it’s this multi-layered storytelling—through music and visuals—that has fans hooked.
For anyone paying attention, this isn’t a moment of luck or a brief flirtation with the charts. Bruklin’s been building towards this. Magic Show, the earlier pop hit that stormed its way into the U.S. Pop charts, currently sits at 1.1M+ streams on Spotify and almost 4M on YouTube, clearly showing her ability to command attention with playful, upbeat energy. But Daydreaming? It’s deeper. It’s a statement. She’s not just here for the fun; she’s here to stay, and she’s proving that pop doesn’t need to be one-dimensional to be successful.
The brand single is Bruklin stepping into her next chapter—a chapter where she’s not afraid to explore the darker corners of emotion while keeping one foot firmly planted in pop’s glossier side. Fans are watching closely, and so is the industry.
