Amanda Reifer has us turning the volume to the max with her new high-energy single ‘RUDUMB?’. This is a roaring hair-flip, bite-back ‘baddie’ anthem. This artist is one of the most versatile emerging talents in today’s music scene. She straddles R&B and hip-hop effortlessly, with an undeniable Caribbean influence. As the track name suggests, this song is fresh, funky, and full of attitude.
Not every artist can get a Pharrell-produced track – ever – never mind before releasing a full-length debut album. However, Reifer’s undeniable talent has attracted collaborations with the greats: including Kendrick Lamar. Undoubtedly I’m not alone in having discovered this talent through the pairs’ heart-warming hit ‘Die Hard‘ from ‘Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers’.
Unlike the angelic vocals heard on other tracks, ‘RUDUMB?‘ sees the Bajan beauty spit harder than some of your favourite rappers. Boasting an enviable cadence, she simply glides on this unique beat. In traditional Pharrell fashion, the production is pure ear candy. It brings an instant jolt of energy to every listener.
This track will speak to anyone tired of dealing with partners who aren’t on their level spiritually, emotionally, or intellectually. Emanating the boastfulness so often shown by male artists, Reifer flexes her ability to get what she wants out of a fling. She raps, ‘I’d rather go celibate and live in my element / Can’t let it slide, give me someone I can level with.’. Let’s face it, she’s saying what we’re all thinking.
In conclusion, this uncensored, liberating single is a self-love jam everyone needs on their playlist. This excites us for her upcoming debut album ‘The Reifer Files‘. Planned for release later this year, I’m expecting this project to be as multifaceted and layered as she’s proven her artistic identity to be. In the meantime, we’ll boost our ego by keeping this song on repeat.
