Www.bridgitte.me has some powerful things to say, and she says them loud and clear on her latest release, "It's Not for You." This isn't your average pop anthem but a deeply personal, emotionally charged cry of identity, self-worth, and unapologetic presence. What's lovely about this song, though, is the brutal honesty of it. You don't listen to her words; you feel them. There's courage in her delivery, but also a certain gentleness. It's as if she's declaring, "This is me. I'm not shrinking for you. And you don't either."
From the start, edgy, courageous vocals jolt through the noise like a bolt from the blue. There is no tiptoeing around the message here. Www.bridgitte.me holds nothing back. With personal yet soul-baring lyrics, she invites the audience into her most intimate space, the one that does not take kindly to being tamed, played down, or held under wraps for the benefit of others.
"It's Not for You," at its heart, is an anthem of self-love, but not the filtered variety wrapped up in platitudes; it's the gritty, authentic kind. The kind that asks you to bring your entire self, warts and all. This isn't a song about needing to be validated; it's a song about chucking the need to be validated out the window. It's a cheeky middle finger to social conventions, and it's glorious.
"It's Not for You" is just one of the five originals on her new album, also called "It's Not for You," which continues to unfold that powerful tale of self-affirmation. Every track aims to probe deeper into identity and self-acceptance, all tied to Bridgitte's unfearing voice and vision. If you've ever felt like you need to hide who you are or modify yourself, you'll get this song: Loudly, Proudly and Unapologetically.
