Avril Teases Us With More Music
Avril Lavigne is teasing more music from her upcoming album, Head Above Water.
The 34-year-old singer-songwriter has released more teasers of tracks featured on the upcoming album, including one called “Dumb Blonde,” written with Bonnie McKee and Mitch Allan. “Dumb Blonde” will also feature rapper Nicki Minaj.
“The concept and idea for #DumbBlonde came to me through a situation I experienced and I brought it to @BonnieMcKee and #MitchAllan, who helped me bring it to life,” Avril explained on Instagram.
“I had this f*cking loser in my life who was threatened by my strength, confidence and independence as a woman. I was belittled and made to feel bad for who I was: A leader, someone with a vision and opinions, someone who has strength, desire, passion and goals. Never let anyone put you down for being who you are. Stand up. Fight. Be you. Love. Be genuine. Kind. Find yourself and own it. F-k stereotypes. If you’re a strong person and your partner can’t handle you, go find someone who has enough self-confidence and can support you and lift you up and inspire you in your life. As an equal. A friend. Not someone who needs to take you down to make themselves feel better because of their low self-esteem. Yes, women should build each other up, but so should men and women.”
