Wadena's new song, "Bum Busta," is a statement, and you can feel a strong sense of confidence and clarity. This is music with a point, and it's full of life and energy.
"Bum Busta" tells a story that is very familiar at its core. It shines a light on women who are tired of being in relationships that don't give them much in return and make them feel bad about themselves. Women who are single mothers and the main breadwinners for their families, who don't help them. Instead of being bitter about the subject, Wadena shows strength. Every layer of the track has resilience, a refusal to be diminished, and a willingness to take back power.
The work with well-known producer Zaytoven and his A&R/Management team makes the record better. It has a polished but hard-hitting background that lets Wadena's voice and message hit home. The production is lively and interesting, but it never takes away from the story. It makes it louder instead.
