British singer-songwriter Ben Fenner is kicking off the year with the release of his first single of 2020, titled Bad Attitude. A powerful, anthemic and soulful track that builds into a punchy crescendo, Bad Attitude discusses personal and societal changes following the recent political fallout in the UK.
The song is different in tone to his other previous releases. Love Me, Perfectly in Love, and I Am Yours, as the titles probably suggest, are timeless love songs, written in the wake of an important break up for Fenner. Bad Attitude, however, pushes Fenner’s songwriting into a new direction; discussing the effects of politics on everyday people – a theme we love in Sam Fender’s music. The track, produced by Jamie Turner and Tony Draper, is still notably ‘Ben Fenner’ sounding despite its difference in theme.
For fans of modern soul greats such as John Legend, Adele and Sam Smith, Fenner’s music mixes his strong yet delicate vocals with helplessly relatable lyrics and perfectly executed production. With four songs officially released so far, this is only the beginning of Fenner’s promising career.
Bad Attitude is out today, Friday January 31st.
