If you haven’t heard of Olivia Rodrigo, you must be living under a rock.
In February 2019, she was cast in the starring role of Nini Salazar-Roberts on the Disney+ series High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, which premiered in November of that year; for the show’s soundtrack, Rodrigo wrote “All I Want” and co-wrote “Just for a Moment” with co-star Joshua Bassett. Rodrigo was praised for her performance, with Joel Keller from Decider describing her as “especially magnetic”.
In Jan 2021, Olivia released her first single “Drivers License”.
She broke Spotify’s record twice for most daily streams ever for a non-holiday song with over 15.7 million global streams on January 11 and over 17 million global streams the next day.
Since Olivia’s rise, a number of artists have laid claim to writing credits even though they have not been directly involved. If you want to read more about it click here
Olivia did not steal anyone’s copyright but had to give credit because of a process called “Interpolating”. Read about that here.
Anyhoo, we love Olivias music and wish her even more success!
We can’t wait for more music, in the meantime, you can listen to her on PopRock Radio!
