Mel 4Ever spoke to GAY TIMES about her new song, Internet Crush, and the “gay boy” who inspired it at 3am one night. The singer’s new song details Mel 4Ever’s desire to have sex and fall in love with her ‘internet crush’. “I want to fuck my internet crush / ‘Cause I believe that we were meant to be in love,” she sings on the song’s triumphant chorus.
Mel 4Ever uses autotune throughout the track to make her vocals sound electronic which serves as a subtle but clever nod to its title.
