THE WEEKND DIE FOR YOU GUITAR COVER PLUS

On the jazzy, deconstructed РІР‚Сљorange peelРІР‚Сњ she rhymes, perhaps egregiously, РІР‚СљI can make a man go/ Like a motherfucking mango/ Talk your ear off like Van Gogh.РІР‚Сњ The somewhat folksy ballad РІР‚Сљhappy for youРІР‚Сњ begins, РІР‚СљBaby, I almost threw up/ When I found out that you hooked up/ With a girl you met last week.РІР‚Сњ These are lyrics too committed to catching your ear to worry about whether theyРІР‚в„ўre corny - usually a plus in the field of pop songwriting.

A series of singles last year presented Gayle as more of a bedroom-pop type with an R&B streak, fond of matching low-key production with expressive soulful vocals, prone to memorable turns of phrase about the trials and tribulations of young love. But as you might expect from any teenage musician, and any aspiring pop star toying with current trends in search of a hit, itРІР‚в„ўs not necessarily representative of her body of work so far. She is going all-out to capitalize on the trackРІР‚в„ўs popularity, too, flooding the market with a slew of alternate versions - РІР‚Сљangrier,РІР‚Сњ РІР‚Сљnicer,РІР‚Сњ РІР‚Сљchill,РІР‚Сњ a remix with Royal & The Serpent - so that most of her top songs on Apple Music are variations on the same track. ItРІР‚в„ўs too early to discern whether Gayle will endure beyond this one hit, but at this point her career is summed up so completely by РІР‚СљabcdefuРІР‚Сњ that the РІР‚СљGayle (singer)РІР‚Сњ entry on Wikipedia redirects to the article about the song. This wonРІР‚в„ўt be the last rock-infused breakup song to ride the Sour wave to popularity. And itРІР‚в„ўs no coincidence that it has emerged in the wake of Olivia Rodrigo, whose work with producer Dan Nigro nabbed a shout-out in a recent Gayle interview. It reminds me a bit of Kesha, who Nappi has worked with, and of the vast ecosystem of sorta-rap-adjacent blackbear types who have carved out a new lane in mainstream pop. Although guitar is the primary instrument, the steady strums end up submerged in a slow-creeping programmed beat and a dense swell of blown-out synth sounds designed to translate to the radio. Sonically the track exists in that extremely trendy space where alternative rock signifiers crossbreed with mainstream pop sparkle. The song cuts straight to its refrain, with GayleРІР‚в„ўs voice floating over churning guitar chords, reducing her former lover to dust: РІР‚СљFuck you and your mom and your sister and your job/ And your broke-ass car and that shit you call art/ Fuck you and your friends that IРІР‚в„ўll never see again/ Everybody but your dog, you can all fuck off.РІР‚Сњ Later recurrences are preceded by a promise to РІР‚Сљspell it outРІР‚Сњ in case the clueless rube isnРІР‚в„ўt picking up what sheРІР‚в„ўs putting down in the more delicately worded verses, so that each return to the chorus ramps up with a shout-along РІР‚СљA, B, C, D, E, F you!РІР‚Сњ As if this takedown was not already brutal enough, at one point she switches things up by dissing РІР‚Сљyour Craigslist couch and the way your voice sounds.РІР‚Сњ Gayle (no last name provided as of yet) cowrote РІР‚СљabcdefuРІР‚Сњ with fellow Nashville up-and-comers Sara Davis and Dave Pettinger, and they ought to be proud of their work. And given that it channels an ultra-relatable premise into a huge anthemic chorus, how could it not catch on? ItРІР‚в„ўs only a matter of time before it makes its American chart surge too. Although it remains on BillboardРІР‚Вs РІР‚Сљbubbling underРІР‚Сњ chart just below the Hot 100, the song is a smash hit on Spotify (#29 this week in the US) and YouTube (nearly 10 million views) and has already climbed to the upper reaches of the pop charts in several European countries. РІР‚СљabcdefuРІР‚Сњ is a rapidly rising single from Gayle, a 17-year-old singer from Nashville who has spent her adolescence in the major-label trenches - as in, sheРІР‚в„ўs signed to Atlantic Records, counts music industry veteran and former American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi as a mentor, and is working with fame-adjacent figures like РІР‚СљabcdefuРІР‚Сњ producer Pete Nappi, best known as the drummer for Samantha RonsonРІР‚в„ўs band Ocean Park Standoff. And fuck you, IРІР‚в„ўm out!РІР‚Сњ I thought of this scene upon hearing РІР‚Сљabcdefu.РІР‚Сњ Chappelle and SNL actor Jim Breuer were billed as the two leads of Half Baked, but for my money the movieРІР‚в„ўs most iconic moment belongs to Guillermo Diaz, whose character Scarface memorably quits his fast food job by announcing over the restaurant P.A., РІР‚СљFuck you! Fuck you! Fuck you! YouРІР‚в„ўre cool. A lifetime ago, before he was a culture war figurehead posing for photos with Elon Musk and Joe Rogan, before he asked Michel Gondry to film his all-star block party, before he helmed his short-lived but generation-defining Comedy Central series, Dave Chappelle and his creative partner Neal Brennan wrote a stoner comedy called Half Baked.
