XELLE Prove They Still Rule With New Video + EP

If I had to pick one girl group that I could follow from now until the end of time, it would have to be XELLE. I have been covering them since they began, through all the ups and downs. That's why I'm super excited to say that their new EP is finally upon us. But being the over the top duo they are, that's not all they decided to give us. We also got a video. Let's check out "Mr. Right Now" from their new EP release Darkroom.

This song is probably the best track out of XELLE in a good while. I don't mean they've not had awesome tracks recently, but this is such a fun song that captures the spirit of how playful and fun JC and Rony are. Having talked with them a number of times, I know how hilarious these two are, and the song's playful beat and racy-yet-campy lyrics really do it for me. It's a total girl power track, pointing out that it's not only the boys that can have a one night stand now and again. They're totally aware that these guys aren't their soulmates, but they are available.

In "Mr. Right Now"s video, we get to see so many different sides of these ladies. We get to see them be besties in the close-up shots (show above), we get to see them let loose (when they've got the shot glass wigs on, which I would totally rock), and even the sexy sides of them (when they're straddling their slabs of man meat). It has a very fun story line that follows the two from the bar, back to their place, and even playing strip poker with guys they found out on the town. In a fun twist, the guys turn out to be more bears than jocks, leaving them a bit confused -- JC looked confused. Rony looked damned pleased with herself.

It was really interesting to see this twist ending. They didn't shame the men at all for being chubby, which is something that really does happen (no it's not just ladies that can be fat shamed), and while it was kind of a gag for the end of the video, the girls did have a good time with them. This comes hot off the heels of that one YouTube video by some nobody "YouTube Celebrity" (if that's even a thing any more) who was ranting about hating on fat people. XELLE dropped their house on that wicked witch with their own video (seen here) telling her off and making sure their fans know this isn't something they stand idly by and watch. Basically they are internet super heroes.

And if that isn't enough for you, they also dropped their first EP in like fifty years! Ok, so I'm exaggerating, but it's been so long and it is so wonderful to have a collection of tunes all in one place for the grabbing. If you are an avid follower of the band, you may not be as excited. The EP is mostly made up of previously released songs ("Juicy", "Sweat" and "Red Flag"), but also contains "Mr. Right Now" and an album only song that shares the title of the EP "Darkroom". If you already own the past singles, the two new songs alone are worth buying to round out your collection. If you haven't been keeping up with these two as much recently, then you can grab all their best new songs in one place on iTunes here.
