Zara Larsson Drops Self-Empowerment Anthem ‘Don’t Worry Bout Me’ With Stunning Artwork
Swedish pop star Zara Larsson has released her new single “Don’t Worry Bout Me,” which is set to be on her new album.
The 20-year-old has been gearing up for her third studio album, and by doing that, she has released her first single of this year. The song is a self-empowering anthem about telling people not worry about others and that they should be thinking of themselves.
“Don’t worry ’bout me/ You should worry ’bout you/ Yeah, that’s your problem, so fix it/ ‘Cause I ain’t none of your business/ Now I’ve been sleeping okay,” are some of the lyrics for the chorus.
According to Billboard, it has been produced by The Struts.
As for the artwork, it’s literally a work of art. Larsson has her hands in the air while she wears a bra with flare pants and wedged heels, looking absolutely stunning.
“Don’t Worry Bout Me” has over 113,000 views on YouTube for its audio-video which has been up for less than 24 hours.
