If you're not already obsessed with Ava Like Lava, let us be the first to say: get on the train now — because it’s speeding straight to global pop domination.


Her latest single, “Good on You,” dropped on November 22, 2024, and it’s been setting speakers (and hearts) ablaze ever since. A total earworm with a feel-good message wrapped in a dazzling pop production, the track has been making its way around the globe — climbing playlists, taking over TikTok, and proving Ava’s not just a rising star, she's a rocket in full launch mode.


So what’s the vibe of “Good on You”? Think strutting-through-the-city confidence, butterflies-in-your-stomach flirting, and daydreaming about how ridiculously good you and your crush would look together. It's upbeat, cheeky, totally infectious — and so Ava. With silky vocals, shimmering synths, and a chorus that begs to be screamed from the rooftop (or, you know, your car with the windows down), this is pop perfection with personality.


And let’s talk about Ava’s glow-up. Born in Japan, raised in China, and now lighting up South Africa’s music scene, Ava Like Lava brings all the flavor to the pop game. Her Iranian roots, international upbringing, and deep connection to rhythm and storytelling give her music a richness that makes her stand out in a sea of copy-paste pop. She's got Doja’s swagger, Shakira’s spice, and Rihanna’s don't-mess energy — all with a globally-inspired twist that's uniquely her own.


Before “Good on You” started its viral ascent, Ava was already making waves. Her previous track “Kill The Fear,” a cross-cultural collaboration with Chinese superstar Vinida Weng, gave us a taste of her depth and versatility. But with this release, she’s showing off her pure pop chops — and we are eating it up.


It’s no wonder Spotify featured her on their I <3 Pop playlist, or that Apple Music is giving her the shine she deserves. She’s got the sound, the look, the vision — and soon, she’s dropping a visualizer for “Good on You” in January 2025, promising even more style and aesthetic brilliance from an artist who already serves main pop girl energy in everything she touches.



Beyond the beats, Ava Like Lava is also the host of The Good Sport podcast, where she uplifts stories from diverse creatives and athletes — proof that her artistry extends far beyond the studio. She’s not just making music — she’s building community, sparking dialogue, and repping a beautifully multicultural identity that shines through in every note she sings.


So what’s next? More music. More visuals. More Ava. And if “Good on You” is any indication, 2025 is about to be the Year of the Lava.


So hit play, throw on your boldest fit, and get ready to fall in love with Ava Like Lava — because she looks good on all of us.
