Meet Lubalin, an unassuming musician from Montreal who makes stirring mini-music videos out of mundane, random bits of social-media arguments.In less than a decade, Sophie grew from a sly, intentionally cryptic project at the edges of noise and dance music into a commercially powerful figure who co-wrote Madonna’s 2015 hit “Bitch, I’m Madonna” and earned a Grammy nomination in 2018 for her LP “Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides.
Sophie was one of the highest-profile transgender musicians working today, though for much of her early career, she kept her identity in the background. Born in Glasgow on Sept. 17, 1986, she credited her father with introducing her to dance music. “He had brilliant instincts, taking me to raves when I was very young. He bought me the rave cassette tapes before I went to the events and would play them in the car and be like, “This is going to be important for you,” she told Lenny Letter in 2018.
That move was intentional: Sophie’s music was meant to be heard on its own terms, which were often challenging but always snapped a listener to attention. Songs like “Just Like We Never Said Goodbye” and “Bipp” used pitch-warped vocal hooks and hard pivots of synthesizers to play with the idea of a triumphant club moment, but always subverted it.
