When Babyjoy makes music, she sets feelings to music. By no means bold, completely unforced, more between the lines, surprisingly undogmatic, out of the situation: "the air is thick, the room is warm, my heart is cold / where do you want to go? I hold you tight, I feel no hold". The emotional field of tension in which the Berlin native moves lyrically and musically is too broad, too multi-layered, too complex for black-and-white depictions - a sad and critical note is mixed into every joyful frenzy, even in phases of comprehensive dejection there is always a spark of hope. In Babyjoy's pieces, crystal-clear vision and formless dreaminess, life-affirming melancholy and overwhelming world-weariness, vulnerability and empowerment merge into a great whole - uninhibitedly honest, transparent and intimate. But Babyjoy demonstrates enormous flexibility not only in the interplay between emotional states and in her lyrical explorations of togetherness, trust and loss: she moves just as nimbly between languages, stylistic attitudes and genre boundaries. With a soft and equally rough voice, she blossoms as a singer and rapper in equal measure, flows at a fast pace and sets thoughtful pauses, controls driving trap beats here and decelerated modern jazz compositions there. Babyjoy's lyrics, meanwhile, thrive on multilingualism: German, French and English passages even intertwine in the middle of individual songs.
