She gives the middle finger to the patriarchy while being fully aware of the bitter truth that although retreating into the private sphere may be more comfortable, but it’s no way to solve problems. Bush.ida makes music with a message and guts in which the lyrical content is on the same level as the auditory brilliance. The means of choice: rap made up of thick trap beats and biting bars with a healthy dose of chaos. It’s a rare combination of sounds and styles that Bush.ida pulled off with gusto on her debut EP, “Will kommen im Bush” (2023), blending feminism, environmental activism, linguistic acrobatics, and super fresh rap for the new twenties into an intoxicating cocktail. From her first gigs at the LitClitNight as part of the series “Geschlecht.Macht.Gesellschaft” at Leuphana University to features with the 365 female MCs, and from cracking festival shows at Fusion to collaborations with DJ Julio Paradise and LLUCID, the rapping jack-of-all-trades has managed to check off almost all the boxes on her bucket list. What’s missing? Her premiere with us in Hamburg. But now, it’s finally coming.
taking listeners on a musical journey of discovery and leading them straight to the heart of Bush through thick beats and sharp rhymes.
