Marika Hackman didn't start out like this. The English musician was just making plaintive and wispy folk music on her 2015 debut album, We Slept At Last, but something snapped two years ago when she came out with I'm Not Your Man. Her songs suddenly had claws. They were more direct, they had a whole lot to say. That album's breakout single, "Boyfriend," was slyly sardonic, a song about a boyfriend's girlfriend cheating on him with Hackman. The boyfriend dismisses the nature of their relationship as casual, not built to last. "It's fine 'cause I am just a girl," Hackman sings. "It's just a dream/ A woman really needs a man to make her scream."
