Emerging rapper and singer-songwriter Bvnk has today released his brand new single titled "Situations".
Bvnk is a musical product of his environment, having been born in Nigeria, raised in the UK, and now residing in North America – his music is a melting pot of various genres. Enriches with lush R&B foundation, woven with a heavy-hitting hip hop feel and melodic rap, Bvnk flavour's his sound with indie music components. With life experience filtering from three different continents, Bvnk's ability to story-tell doesn't go unknown. Treating his supporters with two mixtapes last year including fan-favourite ‘Promises’, Bvnk is set to take 2020 with both hands as he shares his first release of the year "Situations". Produced by burgeoning LA-based musician and beatsmith Twelve 92, this single is taken from his forthcoming debut EP titled "XX/XX" - pronounced 20/20. Bvnk’s "Situations" sees the Denver rapper-singer taking responsibility and showing a sense of maturity as he confronts his failures in a past relationship, “I did something to you, I never said sorry to you”, before kicking off his rap verse with, “tell me what I did to make you feel like I was breaking you”. Led by dreamy R&B guitar licks, layered with minimalist drum arrangements, groovy melodies, and an infectious bass-line, Bvnk showcases his dual singing and rapping talents, as well as his undeniable songwriting dexterities. Speaking on the inspiration behind his track "Situations", Bvnk commented, “In a time where the world is full of one sided stories, and men thinking that taking responsibility is weak for some reason or the other, with women left having to deal with their toxic masculine energy, I wanted to take the truthful route on "Situations". The song is about me looking into the mirror, taking responsibility, and apologising for the hurt I had caused. Amidst it all, ‘two wrongs don’t make a right’ is the perfect quote that explains "Situations", because I’m ultimately asking for a second chance”. Listen to "Situations" below.
