“nevermind” is the latest release from incredibly talented artist, Jayde. This song discusses her own internal struggles regarding what she wants in this stage of her life. She was having an emotional battle with the little devil on her shoulder, telling her she should let go of the healthiest relationship she has been in so she could be single. She wanted the freedom to be with new people, but she did not want to be the one to end the relationship. She wanted her partner to mess up so she would have a true reason to leave. In the song, the lyrics highlight her internal battle. She is going back and forth between wanting to stay with her partner because she loves them, and wanting the relationship to end. In the chorus, she starts with saying she wishes they would ruin everything, but then they “get a little bit closer” and Jayde starts to think “nevermind”. She wrote this song while she was in a very stagnant place in her life emotionally and physically. She wanted to create chaos in her life to feel something, but her conscience was telling her not to. “nevermind” is one of Jayde’s most vulnerable songs to date.
