In today's video, I'll be showing you how to produce a song like Olivia Rodrigo. The 3x Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter has been taking the world by storm ever since her debut single ‘drivers license’ was released in 2021. More recently, however, Olivia teamed up with ‘good 4 u’ collaborator Alexander 23 and her producer Dan Nigro to deliver ‘Hate Me If It Helps’, whose production will be the focal point in this week’s video, featuring vocals by JULAPINK.
