#FMSpotlight: VITA – “BADBADBAD” (Listen)

VITA channels the frustration felt by several conformists in her new song “BADBADBAD.” The pent-up emotions make way through VITA’s lyrics and her vocal delivery. The singer’s passionate mezzo-soprano range mirrors the instrumental that takes admiration from pop, hard rock, and electro. 

She explains, 

“BADBADBAD is about taking your power back. It’s about being at the point where you’re tired of pleasing people, of conforming to societal standards, of being controlled by relationships, of being the person everyone expects you to be.  When you’re done being defined by others’ expectations and want to stand up and say “FUCK YOU” to anything or anyone that tries to confine you into something more digestible for themselves. This song is that for me. It’s the first step into living authentically for myself. The big divide between who I was and who I am becoming.”

VITA

VITA lays her feelings out on the table in the first few verses. She’s changing the narrative and making this person accountable for their actions. 

I got a lot to say/You got a lot of explaining/Shit you know I don’t play,” she declares. “I put my foot on the gas/Bitch imma regulate.” 

As the song continues, she communicates that the negative responses are no longer a concern. VITA is putting herself first. If anyone has an issue with her new approach toward mentally draining situations, she’s hanging it up

If they wanna run they mouth /Go for miles I’ll wear you out,” she says. 

VITA

Towards the end, the Australian native vividly expresses how she’d handle human leeches.  Simply put, their reactions are a reflection of themselves and have nothing with her or what she’s expressed.

The silhouette conspiracy is topped by Big Daddy Kane’s words about KRS-One and wanting to battle with him. In 2019, Big Daddy Kane told Okayplayer that KRS-One’s “battle skills are incredible.” 

“I’ve watched stuff that he’s done with other people he battled,” Big Daddy Kane said. “Direction-wise, I really respect his battle skills. If you want to go at it with someone, you want to go at it with the best. He’s one of the best-established artists who knows how to battle.”  

‘Verzuz’ in the City

The upcoming ‘Verzuz’ is yet again happening in New York City. So did one of the previous events, which ended up with controversies. 

During the event, Irv Gotti called out 50 Cent. While Fat Joe and Ja rule competed, Irv Gotti was commenting on the event’s stream. He claimed, “All y’all talking about that 50 sh_t.” Irv then added, “All good. He got beat up stabbed up. Shot up. And sued us. That’s all I’m gonna say. Your hero ain’t what you think he is. Period. And facts.”

Ja Rule also joined Irv later, stating that 50 would be nothing without Eminem. 

In response, 50 Cent posted a series of pictures. In the photographs, 50 is wearing a suitdrinking cognac, and also smoking a cigar. The rapper also reminded in the comment section that “I put they whole label out of business, f_ck with me if you want to. I would stay out of my way if it wasn’t me. LOL.”
