Everyone’s got something to say about THE DARE.

When asked what is wrong with New York, The Dare answers: "Nothing." Really? "No."
In the few months since we last spoke, things have changed quite a bit for Harrison Patrick Smith, once a New York micro-celeb, now reaching the dizzying heights of, erm, the PopCrave X (formerly Twitter) feed.
'Guess', the Charli xcx 'BRAT' bonus track that Harrison produced, and its subsequent Billie Eilish remix, took a raunchy sledgehammer to the top of the UK chart with its name-dropping pre-chorus lyric, making any casual Radio 1 listener go, "Who's The Dare?" The rest of the world wasn't far behind, and before long, his debut single 'Girls' was having its TikTok moment and making its way up the Spotify viral charts.

Like kismet, it's all kicked off just in time for The Dare's debut album rollout. 'What's Wrong With New York?' was revealed with the similarly cocky 'Perfume' in May and later the hedonistic 'You're Invited'.
