Selena Gomez is an American pop singer who predominantly creates songs categorized as EDM/Dance-pop. The artist described her debut album as "baby dubstep" - it drew inspiration from electronic, disco, techno, and dancehall music. She has also experimented with several other genres, including electro-pop, pop-rock, and synth-pop.
The captivating track - "Wolves" was made in collaboration with Marshmello (Christopher Comstock), an electronic music producer and D.J.
"Wolves" starts with gentle guitar riffs, and then the tempo builds momentum as the song proceeds. With intense lyrics and easing music, the song gives off a dramatic effect resembling a woeful fairytale. Selena is definitely playing on her strengths with the vocals, and they perfectly depict the urgency of trying to escape the hurt and anger mentioned in the beautifully written lyrics. Desperately running towards easing the pain and finding some semblance of peace is what you feel when you listen to "Wolves". The metaphor of the moon and wolves is bound to pull you in from a story-telling perspective. The beat drop is expected, yet satisfying. The track ends softly with Selena singing the chorus making it more intense. It's nearly impossible to not listen to this song on repeat.
