Badxyou & 8485 Teams Up On Single “Better”
Los Angeles pop trio Badxyou released a dreamy Pop single 'Better', featuring underground pop star 8485. The song tackles the issue of mental health with a powerful narrative, both vulnerable and moving.
Indeed, at the heart of "Better" is the story of a person struggling with his own identity and self-esteem, and the toll it takes on his mental health. The song opens with a minimalist guitar sounding — with Badxyou’s lead vocalist Andy's voice almost whispered, as he exposes his struggle with bipolar. His delivery conveys the intensity of his emotions, making the listener feel the depth of his pain.
As the chorus builds, the music intensifies, reflecting the raw emotion of the lyrics. The sound is powerful, with a thumping bass line and synthesizers that create a sense of urgency.
The collaboration with 8485 adds a sparky and fresh dimension to the song; his ethereal voice blending smoothly with Andy's. The two voices complement each other, creating a beautiful harmony that elevates the song to new heights.
