Billie has been a fan of Justin Bieber since day one. It was a major milestone in Billie's career. This track was not just about monetary gain. To talk about this, you have to know something. Producer: Justin, how much auto-tune do you want?īack to the topic. Justin, having just timed out on his fifteen minutes of fame from his track “I Don't Care” with Ed Sheeran, was clearly making yet another attempt to salvage the remainder of his relevance among a younger audience and in doing so he effectively ruined this song for me. There is no depth, no effort and when compared to Billie's verse it ultimately falls short and by falling short, it drags the track down with it. Justin's verse is, unfortunately, the epitome of the lethargic attitude present in lyrical content today. When you compare the two verses, Billie offers a more creative use of words and narrative that is easy to follow. My gripes with the remix do not end there, Justin's lyrical content was sub-par and underwhelming. To allow Justin to litter her track with these bits of mainstream pop is to create doubt in the minds of the people who thought that Billie's music was incorruptible and who have, in their minds, set Billie apart from all the other popular musicians. It's why so many people are drawn to her because she is different. Justin's ad-libs (which included “skrrt”, how can I take him seriously as an artiste after that?) detracted from Billie's overall image as this out of the box character who has come to defeat the villain that is mainstream pop culture. Contrast is good, but too much contrast is jarring.įurthermore, a feature with an idol does not a good song make. Khalid has a very masculine voice, but his style is similar to Billie's, thus creating a satisfying harmony. The two complemented each other well and created a sound that included unique voices (which added contrast) but not so much that the sounds in the song seemed to sit on two opposite ends of a very broad spectrum. When it comes on to duets, I may not be a musical expert, but as a listener it is more pleasant and enjoyable to artistes whose voices complement each other, it's why her single “Lovely” with Khalid was so good. Billie Eilish is known for her alternative sound and unique style, a vocal that is in complete contrast to Justin's signature mainstream sound that we recognize Billie to be the opposite of. Sonically, hearing Justin's voice against the beat of “bad guy” was unpleasant. The song which introduced us to Billie's iconic “duh”, has been polluted by autotune and cringe-worthy ad-libs. With the music video gaining over 375 million views on Youtube since its release it's no surprise that hit track caught the attention of stars like Bieber, who has recently teamed up with Billie to deliver the ruination of what was one of the greatest songs of 2019 thus far. Rolando: When Billie Eilish released “bad guy” as a single off her new album it instantly became a favourite among the young star's fans and non-fans alike. The question being, was it really as bad as Rolando says, or does Fabrizio make sense? Billie Eilish released a remixed version of “Bad Guy” from her debut album “WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?” and it was.questionable (or at least Rolando thinks so).
