Cursing doesn’t make you badass. Being a badass in today’s terms is earned, not deserved. And believe me, singer and songtress TAELA is the O/G of badass. Every track on Life’s a Bitch…But it Gets Better comes with the letter E attached as a warning for explicit. I think that E needs to represent another word…Empowering.
Whether it’s a romantic partnership, a friendship, or even a familial tie, toxicity can permeate every aspect of our lives. TAELA knows this. She is no expert or victim. TAELA simply offers faithful renditions of a woman learning to forgive herself, love her choices, and move on.
Serving emotional depth on a silver platter, Life’s a Bitch…But it Gets Better, the latest release by TAELA, is a powerful testament to the raw emotions and unfiltered storytelling that have come to define her and her music. With a fearless approach to songwriting, TAELA delves deep into the complexities of romance and invites listeners on an introspective journey through her heartfelt melodies and poignant lyricism. Released by Young Forever/Capitol Records, this LP offers solace to those who have experienced the pain and turmoil of destructive relationships without being destroyed themselves.
TAELA dares to sing and write what is weighing on her heart and mind. From the first track, “Unforgiveable,” every song confronts the listener with TAELA’s unapologetic honesty. She fearlessly lays bare her experiences, recounting the painful and uncomfortable truths. “I think it can be uncomfortable for some people to listen to but really healing for whoever needs to hear it,” she shares passionately. In the most sexy and positive way, TAELA is a villainous woman, not to be misunderstood.
TAELA’s music also serves as a catalyst for healing and growth. By sharing her experiences, she shows listeners they are not alone in their struggles. The power of her music lies in its ability to provide a sense of catharsis and understanding, allowing listeners to heal from the wounds inflicted by relationships gone wrong. Stellar lyrics like “You don’t care about me until I’m under your sheets” featured in the track- “I can’t” highlight TAELA not having the emotional bandwidth to continue being with someone she should have cut ties with a long time ago.
In a world where toxic relationships can feel isolating, TAELA’s music reminds us that we are not alone and that healing is possible. So, let her music be a guiding light as you navigate the complexities of your own journey.
