Boy Jr. unleashes the confrontation we all want with “I Hope You Feel Terrible”
New York based alt pop and rock talent Boy Jr. has just shared their latest single. The song is called “I Hope You Feel Terrible” and it is the first banger off of their upcoming album I Love Getting Dumped. With a hilarious and sarcastic name like that plus Boy Jr.’s history as a creative and powerful songwriter, we can barely contain our excitement to hear the upcoming full length. The good news is we can listen to their new single now!
“I Hope You Feel Terrible” is a forthright and highly relatable song all about those parting words one wishes to spell out to their ex. The artist confides, “You know how people will tell you to write a letter you’ll never send when you’re upset with someone? “I Hope You Feel Terrible” is like the letter I wasn’t supposed to send. It is for everyone who wishes they could have a romcom-like confrontation with someone who hurt them and tell them exactly how they really feel, with the perfect closing one liner and everything.” The track’s narrative is both fun yet emotional, sad yet confident. A downtempo electric guitar riff begins the song and soon Boy Jr sings those intoxicating melodies. The chorus picks up and is a raucous and defining affair. Gritty sonics, pounding drum beats and ever louder vocals are highlights of this pure delightful musical moment.
Boy Jr. is musician, producer, singer and songwriter Ariel Allen-Lubman (they/them). Their quirky style, fun-loving personality, openness as well as phenomenal musical releases has made them attract a variety of followers.
