Listen to BEST DAYS in full featuring “Bad Guy” HERE.
This EP let me lay it all out there, showing every facet of what I love about music. It kicks off with an explosion of sound — distortion dialed up to eleven, vocals saturated and gritty, and drums that hit like a storm. From there, things slide effortlessly into hip-hop grooves and sampled guitar riffs, while the lyrics dig deep. The record ends with the most vulnerable I’ve ever been, revealing dark secrets from my past. – CON THE ARTIST
“Bad Guy” tells the true story of a relationship turned sour after a partner’s betrayal. Written in the aftermath of a long-distance romance, the song delves into feelings of bitterness, accountability, and eventual healing.
At the time, I was living in London with my band, focused on music and staying loyal. Meanwhile, she was going on dates back in Canada. I was devastated but stayed in the relationship longer than I should have. I hated who I became – angry, resentful, bitter. In the end, I saw myself as the bad guy. Writing this song was the moment I finally healed. I was stuck in bitterness and depression for two years after we broke up, but the day I wrote “Bad Guy” was the day I moved on. It’s a triumph, a release of my pain and acceptance of my own mistakes. – CON THE ARTIST
And I know I cannot put all the blame on you
‘Cause I’m the bad guy too
