ILUKA Delivers Hard-Hitting “California Boys” Performance [Video]

ILUKA absolutely crushed it last year, then kept that fire burning with "Girl On The Run" and its stunning, sun-drenched music video drop in April. The track came hot on the heels of "Woman Gone Mad"—her raw, grief-laden response to those devastating LA fires that ripped through her own neighborhood.

That song? It perfectly captured both the heartbreak and the fierce resilience we all need to survive the chaos of recent times.

Now she’s back with what’s being called a ‘smirking takedown’ of LA’s beautiful, fake "nice guy" players. "California Boys" absolutely demolishes these dudes with razor-sharp lyrics that cut deep: you’re so punk rock, heavy metal / soft like a flower petal / ooh you think you’re such a dream.

It’s basically her middle finger to every emotionally unavailable, commitment-phobic, image-obsessed guy who vanishes without a trace. And honestly? She’s completely over it.

The music video drives her message home even harder—ILUKA strutting through LA in killer thrifted looks she styled herself. Those endless blonde waves, that fierce red lipstick, singing directly at one of those vapid pretty boys she’s totally done with.

Her signature raspy voice? Dripping with pure disdain.

With steel guitars backing her up and that perfect country twang, "California Boys" delivers the ultimate "fuck you" that these fuckboys have had coming for way too long.
