Jamaican singer, songwriter, and producer Jada Kingdom took a daring dive in a new direction with her fresh single, “G.A.D,” an acronym for Girls Are Drugs. The latest single, released independently through Kingdom Mab, is a bold statement about her versatility in controversial and thought-provoking subjects.
“G.A.D” is a dancehall song, as evident from the first strum of the electrifying guitar riff. Produced by the virtuously accomplished Yo Christon, the track is bursting with punchy guitar riffs and driving percussion more commonly associated with pop-punk than the reggae-styled rhythms that Jada is typically known for. Yet this genre alchemy makes “G.A.D” an audacious exercise in sound and style.
Jada’s energetic vocal performance matches the hard-hitting instrumental, ideally pouring into the fiery guitar-laden beats. The song is both a pop-punk anthem of rebound romance and a brave critique of the complicated and often problematic idea of the concept of two people being in love so much they are addicted to each other, especially in the context of contemporary couplings.
Beneath the catchy hooks and infectious rhythms, Jada Kingdom has been tapping into something more profound. “G.A.D” epitomizes an unapologetic, fearless artist, unafraid to speak her scene. The song embodies the spirit of Jada’s growth as an artist, someone unafraid to step outside the box and push her audience with her sound and message. “G.A.D” is a declaration. With this release, Jada Kingdom demonstrates that she is an innovative force carving her lane in the global music landscape.
