Fans Choose Dove Cameron’s ‘When in Rome’ as This Week’s Favorite New Music
Dove Cameron's new single "When in Rome" has been voted the top pick in Billboard's weekly new music poll, taking more than 71% of the vote ahead of releases from Jhené Aiko, Slayyyter and Bleachers. The track, released with a music video on Friday, marks the first taste of Cameron's long-awaited debut studio album, following her earlier career as a Disney Channel star and established solo recording artist.
The whimsical love song appears to draw on Cameron's real-life romance with Måneskin frontman Damiano David, who is Italian, with lyrics referencing falling in love and building a home together. The playful accompanying video, directed by Hannah De Vries, was praised by Cameron for its cast's improvisation and energy. Jhené Aiko's Westside Whimsy came second with 11% of the vote, followed by Slayyyter's "Crank 2" and Bleachers' "Caught Myself Believing"; no title or release date has yet been announced for Cameron's forthcoming album.
