She credited her sudden popularity to the website's algorithm system. The song's success attracted criticism from those who called her self-described "DIY" ethos disingenuous and a disguise of nepotism.After the popularity of "Pretty Girl", Clairo signed a record contract with the help of her father Geoff Cottrill, a marketing executive who worked for numerous companies related to advertising and artist promotion. In 2018, she released her debut record Diary 001 on Fader Label, a company related to Fader magazine. more »
