Zipped Lips x Angie Ripe Share New Single ‘Only Joking’

Zipped Lips, the colorful, 80s flavored, electro-pop outfit led by NYC-based producer Peter John Andre, teams up with pop vocalist Angie Ripe to deliver Only Joking, a retro-infused synth/electro-pop cut! 
 
What I like the most about this song is its upbeat energy and bright atmosphere that instantly got me in a good mood and excited to want to share it with you guys. Only Joking is a song about gaslighting, being in a relationship where someone makes you second guess your feelings and truly becoming a negative and toxic person in your life. An anthem for those with someone like this in their lives which will give you that extra motivation to kick them to the curb and finally move on. Angie Ripe's vocals are very expressive and packed with confidence (at times reminding me a bit of Carly Rae Jepsen), soaring effortlessly over the upbeat blend of new jack swing elements with 80s synths and groovy rhythms that together create an overall upbeat, feel-good atmosphere perfect for the weekend!
