Right off the bat, the feeling that this is the type of song to garner attention from notable media apps, be played on repeat in night clubs or an outfit check, or just something to keep the atmosphere loud and most importantly, lively. “It’s Bad News” is a well-arranged chaos in synth-pop fashion is just what today’s music scene is all about, and it has more than a fair shot of taking the world by storm.
Belfast-based artist Ellie Brétéché is known for her expertise in creating music that defines her completely, all while creating them with the intent to resonate with an audience that feels the same. With a style like Charli XCX’s and Lady Gaga’s, expect her art to be resounding and emotion-filled, the exact genre to yell with your entire heart (and lungs) to.
According to her, “It’s Bad News” is all about heartbreak, thus earning it more points for iconism. The whole track sounds like the dance floor, and a vivid image of flashing lights and fast-paced bodies bobbing along to the beat comes to mind. The vocals resemble one coming off a megaphone, deeming it worthy to be played on full volume when you wish to be drowned by its groove.
Despite its actual implication and meaning, it can also (clearly) pass off as a party anthem, one that’s bound to catch every DJ’s attention to make remixes out of, and an earworm to partygoers. If you ever dig that sort of vibe and energy, you know what song to listen to.
