Snoh Aalegra – Bad Things Feat. Common
If you have been paying attention, you will notice that there is great music being released all over this week! It is almost overwhelming, almost. I am happy to share this new premiere song that instantly resonates, with its opening lines “I do bad things to good versions of me. I find good things in bad versions of me.”
Bad Things is a new single by a singer from Sweden with an enchantingly soulful voice, Snoh Aalegra. You might recognize her from a song she did previously with No I.D. and Trakmatic called Burning Bridges. While the beat to this one left me bobbing my head from the start, it was those first words that caught my instant appreciation. The song is a play on the contradictions of being human, consciousness of our own mistakes and bad habits, and the inner web of confusion that can eventually form following our actions. It’s very clever while being straightforward and relatable. The song features production by Cocaine 80’s while a verse from Common takes it even higher. Take a listen below and enjoy! You can also download Bad Things via Snoh’s soundcloud, which I have linked below.
