"'Underdog'" is a song by American singer and songwriter Banks. It was released on September 28, 2017 after premiering on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 radio show. The song was written by Banks and Al Shux and produced by the latter.

Critical reception



The song received acclaim from music critics. Mike Wass of Idolator called it "surprisingly upbeat", praising it as "catchy, full of glorious pop hooks and undeniably feel-good." 'PopCrush' called it "a commanding, almost guttural-sounding slice of stuttering electro-pop, with lines punctuated by [literal!] snarls and sharp exhalations" and "it's a nonstop showcase of brilliant melodies and Mastiff-sized hooks". Robin Murray of Clash Magazine spoke positively of the track, saying "it's a fascinating piece of multi-faceted pop [...] bright, shimmering on the surface, Banks is never afraid to delve a little deeper, adding layers of darkness to her songwriting". Shaad D'Souza of 'ABC' Triple J described the song as a "summer jam".
