Bad Bena channels faith and resilience in powerful new single 'Holy Triad'.
Jamaican-Puerto Rican dancehall sensation Bad Bena returns with her most personal and hard-hitting release yet, ‘Holy Triad’. The London-based artist, known for her fusion of dancehall and trap, explores the emotional toll of leaving home and facing the harsh realities of life as an immigrant in her latest track. “’Holy Triad’ is a deeply personal cry for help, and a plea to the Most High for protection from the surrounding darkness,” Bena shares, reflecting on her struggles in a foreign land.
Produced by Saint Lucian beatsmith SnipeZ and engineered by Hot Money, the track’s dancehall-trap soundscape perfectly complements Bad Bena’s poignant lyrics, which delve into the isolation of being far from home and the fight for survival. “This song is a soul-wrenching cry from the depths of despair,” she explains, capturing the sense of loss and loneliness that comes with starting anew in London. Yet, the song is also an anthem of faith and strength, as the artist clings to hope and the guidance of the ‘Holy Triad’ in her darkest moments.
Accompanying the track is a visually stunning music video directed by Bdot, set against the backdrop of London’s cold, unforgiving streets. The video, a metaphor for spiritual resilience, follows Bad Bena’s journey from despair to empowerment. “It’s a story of faith, growth, and transformation,” she explains, as the visuals echo her personal evolution from uncertainty to self-assurance.
With ‘Holy Triad’, Bad Bena cements her place as a rising star, delivering a raw and powerful narrative that resonates with anyone who has ever battled adversity, while continuing to carve out her own unique space in the music world.
