Editor's note

Dari's raw pop songs about identity and desire

A Brooklyn duo whose 2008 hit 'I Kissed a Boy' brought direct same-sex desire into mainstream pop.

For a sense of their directness, 'I Kissed a Boy' still hits hard. 'Non Pensavo' shows that same unfiltered approach in a different mood.

Dari's music mattered because it said things pop wasn't saying in 2008. 'I Kissed a Boy' landed with a bluntness about same-sex attraction that felt rare on radio. Their other songs like 'Non Pensavo' and 'Love is Dead' kept that personal, unfiltered quality in lyrics about relationships and identity.

They formed in Brooklyn in 2007 and released 'Come Clean' in 2008, followed by 'Love Is a Killer' in 2010. Their sound mixed pop and electronic production while staying grounded in straightforward song structures. Some criticism about their outspokenness on gender topics didn't stop them from making raw, energetic music.
