It's hard to really box Blackbear into a specific genre. While he isn't intrinsically hip-hop, he certainly keeps himself adjacent to the culture. However, when listening to his songs, you certainly get the feeling that he is at his most comfortable when making catchy pop tunes that will land him on all of the major streaming playlists.
His latest track "queen of broken hearts" is yet another example of his pop song sensibilities and will surely lend itself to streaming success. Throughout this track, we see Blackbear delivering some pretty dark, soul-sucking lyrics, all while a bright and happy beat plays in the background. If you're a Blackbear fan, definitely give this one a listen.
Yeah, you need to chill, girl, don't play me
I'm too far gone, you can't save me
And I don't care, fucking hate me
I popped a pill and I'm faded
Take anything, make it about me
It's a heavy crown, it might drown me
