SMILE AGAIN by 79.5 ☺︎
Surprise! A new single. She’s a protest song.
☺︎
Come here now baby, won’t you smile again-
So the world can’t hear your problems?
Lick up the pieces, everybody’s the man.
Won’t you smile again?
Smile again.
Give the man a tower that he burns ‘til the end
Cause the money is his father.
The money is his father, baby, you understand.
Won’t you smile again?
Smile again.
Ya can’t
No ya can’t
No ya can’t
No ya can’t
No ya can’t
No ya can’t control the people!
We will fight with our hands
‘Cause the money ain’t our father!
When the world can’t turn a profit
You will burn ‘til the end
Won’t you smile again?
Smile again?
Smile again.

❤︎ NEW S̶I̶N̶G̶L̶E̶ ANTHEM DROP! ❤︎
❤︎ B.D.F.Q. “B*tch, Don’t F*cking Quit” is a personal call-to-arms: a reflection of the past struggles when it came to creating and releasing music in an environment fueled by misogyny and neglect. Fearless, confident and unbothered, the industrial-infused anthem holds a stew of ingredients from 90’s hip-hop to classical piano, delivering delightfully with buttery harmonies and mellow grooves. With Kate Mattison’s mounting chromatic scales and Lola Adanna’s deft rap style (which even nod’s NYC’s Verrazano Bridge), there’s a cacophony of dazzling musical elements to B.D.F.Q., and 79.5 freshly delivers it all with one simple message: Never give up on yourself.
