From the first seconds, it is clear that the artist sought to break the codes. “Mauvais Garçon” offers a darker and more spoken atmosphere, with a resolutely pop-electronic production, while keeping a more sung and catchy chorus. The text, just as intense as that of “Summer Body”, this time addresses a harder and deeper theme, contrasting with the pastel colors and the message of self-acceptance of the previous title.
An unexpected Belgian success story: how Héléna Bailly really broke through after the Star Academy
This time, Héléna adopts a “bad girl” posture and delivers a reflection on toxic relationships. “I wanted to write a dark, deeply sad song about relationships capable of destroying everything that a person is. But in reality, I was going the wrong way. Being a bad girl facing a loser was a lot cooler”, she explains in her Instagram post.
If the title is undeniably successful, some will find a resemblance to the world of Angèle, an influence that Héléna has never hidden, on the contrary. So, will we soon see featuring between the two Belgian artists?
Whatever the case, this title already promises to be a new success for the young artist.
