Are we witnessing the resurgence of Liza, better known as Liza Monet? The godmother of the Bad Bitch movement in France has experienced significant ups and downs in the music industry since her debut over a decade ago. Following a recent meeting with a producer, she reveals: “I know why so few women are in the music industry.” She epitomizes the deep cultural divide between the United States and France in the Hip Hop movement!
Liza is back to “Shine”!
In the United States, icons like Lil Kim and Missy Elliot have left a mark on a generation of women. In France, although slow to take hold, the Bad Bitch movement was pioneered by Liza Monet. As controversial and divisive as Médine, she elicits a mix of scorn and admiration. She is somewhat of a pioneer in a movement that, although born in the United States, is only now starting to take root in France.
With her new single “Shine”, Liza has made a radical style change. Has she mellowed? Hardly likely. She reserves her audacity for her lyrics, claiming it is “a mother’s battle” she is fighting today, especially following the controversy that surrounded her pregnancy.
The track’s soundtrack, an engaging production by Italian producer Laïoung, perfectly captures the spirit of renewal. In a video directed by LP Prod, she flaunts a life of luxury and extravagance.
