dezabel’s release, “Can’t Stand You,” is a gummier, more addictive cocktail of naked emotion and slick production that reaches out and grabs you from the first instant. With a voice that cleaves through the mix and a melody that sticks with you, dezabel reminds you why she’s a force to be reckoned with.
That push and pull of love and frustration, how passion and irritation can work together in the most intoxicating way, is what this track gets so deep into. It’s that sense of being completely bewitched by a person but pushed to the brink by their mere presence. dezabel nails that tension by surrounding it with sexy, polished instrumentation that makes your head nod and your heart race.
The production is about as slick as it gets, matching dezabel’s powerhouse vocals. “Can’t Stand You” is one of those songs both sides of the pop/rock divide could come together on. It’s brazen, it’s contagious, and it’s a testament to her undeniable artistry. If this is any sign of what’s in store, we’re all in for one exhilarating ride.
