Who doesn’t love it when a song connects with them so intensely, more so when it’s delivered in a voice as strong as Divine’s? Well, listening to “Toxic.Bae” by the Nigerian singer and songwriter evokes a feeling that is so touching. The smooth yet vulnerable delivery of Divine’s delivery is reminiscent of the best R&B singers of the last decades.
For an artist of such incredible talent, Divine surely has limitless potential and with the release of her new Ep Capricorn Mood, she proves that originality in music still exists. You won’t want to miss it!
“Toxic.Bae” is hands up my favorite song on the project, although the entire Ep is a regal body of work and proof that she puts her heart and soul into the craft. a dying characteristic of R&B songs of late.
“Toxic.Bae” finds Divine reflects on her toxic relationship and how badly she wants the relationship to work. She pours her soul into this song. The song sums up all the feelings of wanting to be in that certain comfort zone when having to deal with a toxic partner.
It features an intense and stunning electrical guitar riff, while Divine’s divine vocals powerfully take over the mic. Beautiful piano sounds are integrated into the song softening the presence of its emotional lyrics while allowing each sound to flow freely into the ears of the listener.
