Icona Pop (English /aɪˈkɒnə pɒp/) are a Swedish electropop duo that formed in 2009, with electro house, punk and indie pop music influences. The two members Caroline Hjelt and Aino Jawo, who grew up in Stockholm, create music "which you can both laugh and cry to at the same time". They signed to TEN Music Group in 2009. Their biggest hit to date has been "I Love It".
The duo received international attention following their debut single "Manners", which was released by Neon Gold on French label Kitsuné, and the extended play album Nights Like This on English Mercury Records. Since September 2012, the duo have been based in Los Angeles and New York City in the United States.
Caroline Hjelt (born 8 November 1987) and Aino Jawo (born 7 July 1986, of a Finnish mother and Gambian father) attended the same music school in Stockholm, but met by chance at a party in February 2009 and formed the duo. Four weeks later, they had written songs for their very first performance as a duo. Two years later, the duo described their music as "classical pop melodies with drums and synths". Both Hjelt and Jawo are feminists and wanted to fight for gender equality in the music industry.

You love my love, you never gonna find better love
You hate my love because you're dead without it
You loved my love, you never gonna find better love
You hate my love , you couldn't live without it
Oh, you couldn't live without me
I didn't ask why, but then, why should I?
