B.A. Badd drops video for “100”

Upstate NY Rhyme Capo B.A. Badd has dropped a visual for new single “100” this morning. Filmed in his home turf of Syracuse, NY (shot by Trigg The Ruler) Badd speaks on keeping it thorough and evolving his game while posted up through the town. “100” was produced by Virginia beatsmith Sypooda (Ab-Soul, Daylyt, Grafh) and is the first leak from the Painted In Hunger collaborative LP to drop on May 12th via B.A.’s own E.B.E. Lifestyle LLC Imprint on Bandcamp and on Ebelifestyle.com.

Painted In Hunger will be B.A. Badd’s first non-single since 2020’s Really HIM EP (with producer Reallyhiiim) and 2019’s Everybody Eats LP (which featured appearances from Conway The Machine, Rome Streetz and RIM among others). On the live circuit he has been keeping busy appearing on Jae Skeese’s Ground Level 2025 national tour.
Speaking on the new project the emcee revealed “there’s a lot of growth from my last project to this one. My other projects were very grimy and hard-hitting. I’ve grown as a man since then, experiencing fatherhood so this is probably my most personal work. I tackle subjects including race, family, betrayal and love.”

TIHANE dances with a Python in video for wildly alive new single ‘Throw It Back’
“An absolute tune!”- Melvin Odoom, BBC Radio 2.
TIHANE’s debut album ‘The War on Love’ is a genre-blending journey that flips the classic love song on its head—featuring romance, rage, and resilience through a sound inspired by her Polynesian Croatian roots she calls ‘Indigenous Soul’. Blending vintage soul, hypnotic grooves, and electronic textures with raw storytelling, this album explores the mysteries of life, love and healing.
Co-produced by Segnon Tiewul and TIHANE, ‘The War On Love’ features vintage record samples and rich live instrumentation, bringing together artists and producers from across the globe—including Ghana, India, Bermuda, the UK, and the US—and blending genres from R&B and Neo-Soul to AfroHouse and World Fusion. One moment you’re in a smoky jazz room steeped in golden-era soul; the next, you’re dropped into a futuristic Afro House beat flip.
The first single from the album, ‘Throw It Back,’ has dropped on VEVO with a stunning visual of TIHANE wrapped in a python snake, Polynesian dancing in a lush jungle. The track, which has picked up BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music airplay, fuses exotic melodies with a strong beat and thick low end that feels sensually, spiritually, and wildly alive. Directed by TIHANE with cinematography/camera by Chris Oeurn, color grade by Cris Blyth and assistant camera operation by the song’s co-producer, Segnon Tiewul, the ‘Throw It Back’ video boasts a motley crew of adventurous creators who merge cinema with raw ceremony.
On the single, TIHANE says; “I hadn’t produced a track in years. But one day—mid-heartbreak—I locked myself in a studio and let the pain move through me. No plans. Just pure flow. It was raw. It was sensual. It was powerful. That was the moment I realized just how much of my power I’d been giving away—like so many women do. Performing love. Proving worth. Fighting to be chosen. This song became the sound of me remembering my own pulse. The lyrics came through fast, like they’d been waiting. A feminine force—both fierce and tender—took over. She wasn’t asking. She was commanding me: back into the body, back into pleasure, back into truth. Throw It Back might sound like a dance track—and it is—but it’s also ceremonial. It’s for anyone who’s had to move through ache… and figure out how to dance in that fire.”
.
TIHANE currently lives between Los Angeles and London, crafting sonic sanctuaries for those ready to feel again and rise again. The single and album follow the release of her track “Ain’t That A B!tch” last year, which got significant acclaim from Clash Magazine, EARMILK, CULTR, and more.
TIHANE’s powerhouse vocals have drawn comparisons to Amy Winehouse, Sade, Cleo Sol, and Adele—delivering the kind of soul you feel in your bones. From nostalgic melodies to her signature twist of rap-singing and percussion-driven drops, her sound is a dynamic force. She’s performed across four continents—from historic venues like L’Olympia (Paris) and Bush Hall (London) to cultural platforms like TEDx, Stamp The Wax, and BBC Introducing. Festival highlights include SXSW, Soho House NYC, Homecoming (South Africa), Nyege Nyege (Uganda), and Africa Nouveau (Kenya).
TIHANE’s debut album ‘The War on Love’ — an ode to radical tenderness— is both a personal testimony and a universal offering that invites listeners to feel deeply, move freely, and remember who they are.
Catch TIHANE performing at Pizza Express Live in London on July 22, 2025.
