BIBI Releases New Single “The Weekend”
Fresh off her debut in the U.S. at the 88Rising HEAD IN THE CLOUDS music festival, BIBI is back with a new English single, “The Weekend.” The single is a track that will be featured on the upcoming collaborative album Head in the Clouds 3.
“The Weekend” is an R&B-influenced pop track that sings of a toxic love cycle. The groovy beat has a mainstream quality in the best of terms, as it’s easily addicting and will pull you into the song. While the song is short at under three minutes, the driving beat and BIBI’s smooth vocals make it feel longer.
The video is a perfect match to the song, showing BIBI in a sensual setting with her toxic lover, but with a sinister twist at the end. With the video shot in dark scenes and many tinted red, the stage is set for a vicious cycle. As the soloist has done in the past, many of her shots are pretty provocative, definitely something outside the mainstream for Korean artists. The wicked turn at the end of the video is unexpected, but it paints a powerful picture of pain written within the lyrics.
