With her “Itsy Bitsy” music video, Bava leaves a lasting impression.
Bava’s “Itsy Bitsy” music video is making a major impression.
You’ve heard her work, most notably on the worldwide number-one single “Taki Taki” by DJ Snake, Cardi B, and Selena Gomez, even if you don’t yet know who she is. A classic example of her trademark type of “slinky pop,” the song’s aural influence on the musical landscape has demonstrated that Bava isn’t simply an artist who’s aware of where pop is heading, but the one who’s mapping the route. But this time, through her debut EP, Imitate, the celebrated singer, songwriter, producer, and performer is doing it under her own name.
Her immigrant background and personal past have a significant impact on Bava’s sound, which draws heavily on Haitian music. Whether it was Lady Gaga, ’90s R&B, or classic rock, she grew up listening to it. With dramatic string flourishes, aughts pop, and a hint of ’80s ballroom flare, “Itsy Bitsy” is a musical classic that defies genre and classifications.

“With an exquisite production that was lovingly yet painstakingly made, “Itsy Bitsy” is brave, unapologetically cheeky, cute, and beautifully produced. But most all, it’s enjoyable! “According to Bava’s explanation of her debut hit, which KillaGraham, a student of Skrillex, co-wrote. She continued by saying that the song was written at a time when she felt “disempowered” and “wanted to escape into a fantasy 1000 ft towering boss version of myself challenging the one who injured me.” The song is intended to be a positive power anthem. Although “Itsy Bitsy” features maximalist tones and wildly dissimilar auditory parts, it doesn’t feel overproduced or overblown in the slightest, so a simple music video actually ends up feeling like the ideal visual companion. Because, as Bava demonstrates in the “Itsy Bitsy” music video, all you really need to catch people’s attention is a white seamless in a barren picture studio if you’re already a certified boss bitch.
