Naalah - bitter men (Single)
Naalah’s latest single, “bitter men,” hits with the kind of energy only she can bring, soft yet searing, graceful yet grounded in truth. It’s not only a song; it’s a message wrapped in melody, revealing her experience with the kind of men especially within the industry who operate from a place of quiet hate and wounded ego.
What’s striking is how Naalah doesn’t let that darkness touch her light. She remains oblivious to the hate on most days, only catching glimpses of it when it spills out in desperate grabs for attention. And even then, she doesn’t meet their bitterness with bitterness of her own. Instead, she lets it inspire her pen. “bitter men” becomes a vent, not a vengeance.
There’s something powerful in that restraint in choosing to rise rather than retaliate. Naalah’s energy remains elevated, heavenly even, as she exposes the truth without sinking into the very energy she’s calling out. That balance is rare.
What I love most is her ability to never let them see her down. While they’re spiraling, she’s rising, higher than expected, calmer than they’d hope, and stronger than they can handle. “bitter men” is a reminder that peace is power, and that some people can’t stand your shine but you should never dim it for their comfort.
