Lykke Li is a Swedish singer and songwriter. Her discography consists of five studio albums, four extended plays (EPs), twenty-four singles (including three as a featured artist), and twenty-two music videos. Eager to pursue a music career, Li began working with producer Björn Yttling of Swedish indie rock band Peter Bjorn and John when she was 19. [1] [2] The sessions resulted in her debut EP Little Bit, which she released on her own label LL Recordings in 2007. [1] [3] The release garnered attention from indie pop and mainstream publications in Sweden, while its title track peaked at number 20 on the Sverigetopplistan singles chart. [3] [4] Li soon released her debut studio album, Youth Novels (2008), which peaked at number three on the Swedish albums chart and spawned three more singles, including her second chart entry " I'm Good, I'm Gone". [4] She then signed with Atlantic Records to distribute her releases worldwide. [3] Youth Novels received widespread critical praise, but sales were poor. [5] [6]
Li appeared on American hip hop group N.A.S.A.'s single "Gifted" in 2009, [5] and penned and recorded the song " Possibility" for the soundtrack of The Twilight Saga: New Moon later that year. [7] Her second studio album Wounded Rhymes (2011) received similar critical success as Youth Novels, while adopting a darker sound. [8] [9] The album peaked at number two in Sweden and was certified gold by the Swedish Recording Industry Association (GLF). [10] It also reached the top 20 on the album charts of Canada, Denmark, Finland, Ireland and Norway. [11] [12] Wounded Rhymes' second single, " I Follow Rivers", is Li's best performing single to date; it reached the top five on multiple charts and peaked at number one in Belgium (Flanders and Wallonia) and Germany, [13] and earned certifications in Belgium, France, Germany and Switzerland. Li's third studio album I Never Learn (2014) showcased a more melancholic sound compared to her previous releases, [14] and was named one of the best albums of 2014 by several American music publications.
