Ever since she released the single, ‘Know You Baby’ where she talks about oral sex like it’s a morning ritual like flossing one’s teeth, Bridgez has seen her career explode like a Roman candle. Dancehall loves girls with a good oral game.
The song has shocked listeners and won her a new generation of fans given the mad props from the public on her Instagram, Twitter and Facebook accounts since the song was released.
“Yes, I’ve done it before, so what? Oral sex is not something to be ashamed of, what’s the big deal? Since my song came out on YouTube last week, a lot of people have given me support, the disc jockeys, the selectors say they like it, one even said if the song didn’t sound like a hit I would’ve gotten bun out for that one line but he said because it sounds good he likes it. A few of my family members have called since the song was released as they are a bit concerned, but I am an adult expressing myself,” Bridgez aka Beretta said.
She said the song, ‘Know You Baby’ is not explicitly about oral sex, but it has struck a chord with both males and females because of its risqué content.
“This is just a song of a girl who is falling in love with someone they are already sexually involved with, and someone with whom they want to “get to know better”. For me, oral sex is the next level of the relationship, it is something intimate with someone special, someone you really love,” she said.
Oral sex has always been a tabooed topic in Jamaican dancehall but since Cecile first deliciously raised the subject years ago, all the inhibitions are finally going out the window. Bridgez is leading the charge of female deejays who are not afraid to announce their oral skills to the world. She is a bit surprised at the huge feedback on social media given that the song has not yet hit FM radio.
“All the old taboos are out the window, this is a new age. I am not trying to be the new poster girl for oral sex. I don’t really think it matters about who does it or doesn’t do it. What matters is showing people that’s there is nothing wrong with expressing yourself through music. Whether its something you fantasize about or something you do in real life music is always an escape to vent those thoughts too and that’s what I did with this song,” she said.
