0-5 BAD BENA DROPS NEW VIDEO SINGLE ‘HOLY TRIAD’

BAD BENA, the rising star hailing from the vibrant St. Ann in Jamaica, has released her most personal and powerful work to date with her new single, ‘HOLY TRIAD’. The soul-stirring dancehall and trap fusion track is a raw and honest exploration of the emotional and spiritual challenges that come with leaving home and forging a new path in a foreign land. As Bad Bena puts it, ‘Holy Triad’ is a “deeply personal cry for help, and a plea to the Most High for protection from the surrounding darkness” that captures the overwhelming realities of being an immigrant in London, and encapsulates for Bena, the journey from St. Ann to the UK, which brought with it a harsh culture shock, profound loneliness, and the weight of trying to survive in a city that often feels like it’s swallowing you whole.

Produced by burgeoning Saint Lucia beatsmith SnipeZ, and engineered by Hot Money (Stormzy, Central Cee, Stefflon Don), ‘Holy Triad’ is driven by a resonant dancehall-trap soundscape that provides the perfect backdrop for Bad Bena to pour out her soul on the track. Bena’s lyrics capture the pain of losing loved ones, the isolation of being far from home, and the relentless fight for a better future – not just for herself, but for her family back in Jamaica. “This song is a soul-wrenching cry from the depths of despair,” Bena explains. “When it feels like I’m utterly lost, with nothing left and no one to turn to, I turn to the Most High, the ‘Holy Triad’.” The result is a track that resonates with anyone who has ever battled against the odds, clinging to hope and faith in the face of overwhelming adversity.

Holy Triad’ is accompanied by a visually compelling video directed by British Iranian filmmaker Bdot, known for his work for the likes of Giggs, Clavish, and Popcaan. Filmed in the heart of London, the video is a powerful visual metaphor for spiritual renewal and resilience, as it captures Bad Bena’s journey through the cold, unforgiving streets of the capital city, ultimately finding solace and strength within the walls of a church. Reflecting on how the video depicts her own journey from despair to empowerment, Bena describes the video as offering a “story of faith, growth, and transformation”. Serving as a foundation in Bad Bena’s musical story, ‘Holy Triad’ is an anthem of faith, resilience, and survival that speaks to the heart of anyone who has ever faced the darkness and fought to find the light.
