Scene Queen, with her tracks like "Pink Rover" and "Pretty in Pink," is known for her unapologetic, rebellious approach to femininity, contrasting glittery, hyper-feminine visuals with metal-influenced beats. Chrissy Chlapecka, while not strictly a musician, shares similar aesthetics and messages through her online presence, embodying the "bimbo" persona while simultaneously deconstructing it to challenge societal expectations.
Other notable artists within or adjacent to this scene include Zepkins, Jane’s World, and The Dark Angels, though these artists tend to explore different sonic and lyrical territories while still embracing bimbocore’s blend of playful femininity and underlying commentary. Jazmine Bean also plays with these themes, combining dark, fantastical imagery with pop-punk and alternative sounds.
