Madison Beer, "BOYSHIT" [๐Ÿ“ท: Madison Beer / Access]Rising pop singer Madison Beer is over the BS โ€“ rather the โ€œBOYSHITโ€ โ€“ from an ex- on her entertaining, attitude-filled single.ย 

โ€œIdonโ€™t speak boy-shit.โ€ Yeah, we all see what you did there ๐ŸŽ™ Madison Beer, changing up the traditional bullshit in favor of boy-shit.ย  And for good measure, why not title your fourth single of the year ๐ŸŽต โ€œBOYSHITโ€ as well? ย In an age where we adore shock value, why not shock us, right? โ€œBOYSHIT,โ€ of course, is set to appear on Beerโ€™s long-awaited debut album, ๐Ÿ’ฟ Life Support, which arrives in 2021.ย  So, is โ€œBOYSHITโ€ a good song or is it total BS?

Despite the title with the mighty โ€˜s-bomb,โ€™ โ€œBOYSHITโ€ conceptually is pretty familiar territory in a number of ways.ย  As is the expectation with modern pop, Madison Beer gets a sleek, electro-pop fueled backdrop from ๐ŸŽ™ Big Taste and ๐ŸŽ™ Pete Nappi.ย  Itโ€™s not earth shattering, game changing, or revolutionary mind you, but Beer keeps pace with her contemporaries.ย  Beyond the music itself, the theme and lyrics are also pretty familiar.ย  Basically, boys can be total buttheads, something that she clearly executes when it comes to this particular ex.ย  Sheโ€™s giving her best while heโ€™s totally messing it up.ย  At this point though, sheโ€™s tempted to try again, but she knows itโ€™s not worth it.ย  Hence, where the centerpiece, the chorus comes into play, summing up this poo-poo, ha-ha.

โ€œI donโ€™t speak boy-shit
You're always coming back but your loveโ€™s poison
So, I think that I would rather just avoid it
I canโ€™t understand ya cause I donโ€™t speak boy, no
I don't speak, I don't speak, I donโ€™t speak boy-shit.โ€

Final Thoughts ๐Ÿ’ญย 

All in all, โ€œBOYSHITโ€ works out for Madison Beer.ย  Again, I think weโ€™ve all heard similar records, just without the extra seasoning with that title.ย  She sings well, itโ€™s produced soundly, and she makes her point loud and clear.ย  โ€œBOYSHITโ€ is the new bullshit, I suppose.
