R&B artist, Bemendé, is steadily establishing herself as a force to be reckoned with in the music community.
Nowhere is that more apparent than in her newest release titled ‘FTSH’ - This dazzling EP further proves why Bemendé is worth continual listening.
One of the most notable qualities that Bemendé exhibits is her ability as a songwriter. The lyrics to her music read just like a page out of a diary. There is no tip toeing around her truth. She simply lays out her thoughts and emotions as they are happening or have happened.
Why the hell did I let you in?
It seemed like a good idea at first
I can’t deny that no no
You span a web and lured me in
Like a helpless prey I couldn’t escape no no But I allowed it for sure
She sings these lyrics in her song ‘SOULTIES’. a song about not being able to let go of someone that isn’t good for you. She manages to perfectly relay that sentiment over a jazzy, R&B-tinged track that perfectly conveys a lonely, broken hearted night in the middle of a sleeping city.
Bemendé is definitely a powerhouse and has all the necessary tools to achieve longevity. Her soulful voice and gifted songwriting abilities guarantee her a spot on my playlist.
