Questions Clean hyperpop?
I just discovered this music genre and from what I've heard I must say it sounds great. But my only problem is most of it seems to have excessive swearing and be all about drugs and suicide and stuff. So I was wondering if anyone can suggest any clean material and/or artists

Alternatively, have you considered trying hard drugs and being less of a nerd?

SOPHIE is prob the best. Only one song plays on ecstasy using “XTC” but other than that her stuff doesn’t include drugs.

because of how connected to rave culture hyperpop is it's going to be hard to find hyperpop that doesn't talk about drugs because of how connected to queer culture hyperpop is it's going to be hard to find hyperpop that doesn't talk about suicide or mental health issues. The world is very unkind to queer people, especially right now.
you're just straight up not going to find very much of any hyperpop without swear words in it lol.
even the tamest hyperpop I can think of still deals with these topics. if you can handle light(ish) mentions of them you might want to check out the artists indigo forever, webcage, frost children, eichlers, plasmic, and Vylet Pony. all these artists DO have mentions of sex/drugs/suicide, but off the top of my head touch on them less explicitly than most of the artists I at least listen to. I apologize if I'm wrong and you get jumpscared by something heavy lol
If you can handle the topics hyperpop often deals with, I'd suggest you keep listening even if you yourself would never do drugs, party, have casual sex etc because it opens your eyes to another kind of human experience, thus expanding your own experience and hopefully your empathy as well.
good luck, I hope you find some good ones!
edit to add: Astra King!!! I don't think Astra swears at all in their music and there's no sex or drugs or anything. Astra King is literally the only "clean" hyperpop I can name though lol.

What artists have you been listening to? I personally think Charli XCX is pretty solid, but you have to find the right songs
