It’s about damn time. Several years later after years of murdering features, dropping singles that nobody can refute and giving us glances which remain embedded in the culture, BIA is moving forward to albums. Her ardent debut full-length, BIANCA, drops on 10th October and sis is letting them know that this one is personal. “This is me. Elevated. Expanded. Unguarded,” she said. The first time I am not hiding with BIA behind my back… I follow her out into the light.
Translation: she is about to unpeel the layers and tell us the whole story, not the one that we vibe to, the BIA, but the woman beneath the microphone.
Dade Is Straight Southern Heat with Project Pat DNA and Key Glock Swagger.
Today I want to speak to you about this new single Dade. BIA did it and she did it easily through Patriarc, one of the best architects of Memphis rap, her stepbrother. Her flow is crisp, undisturbed and assertive, precisely, the type of pace that makes one listen. Then Key Glock comes in with his trademark hushed flexing, and we have those snake-charmer bars were only Key Glock is capable of giving.
They are creating give-it-raw, merciless Memphis force and putting it through the contemporary BIA spin together. This is no collaboration with Dade, it is a statement.
We On Go Defined BIA to belong in the Sportsfield (and more)
It is not as though BIA has not been burning the whole year. Her first 2025 single, We On Go became a sports anthem. It was aired by ESPN at Women Final Four, she destroyed the stage at WNBA All-Star weekend, and she carried the same flow to Fever Fest in Indy and even good morning America.
It is now inscribed into NBA 2K26 and hoopers, gamers and sports fans across the globe will be on repeat with that record. That’s not just a single. That’s cultural penetration.
One Thing One Thing was a Summer Flex Electric with Lauryn Hill Spirit.
Then there was One Thing and truth tell that that was cuter than sun, skin, and car speakers. Credit Lauryn Hill but with the BIA brand of assuredness deadlock, it was the song you heard when the sun went down all the summer. Both Billboard and XXL called it the Song of the Week though ultimately it was the people who really gave it a stamp. Social feeds, playlists, pool parties, cod One Thing was ubiquitous.
Young Miko / BIA Is The Birthday Anthem We Didn’t Know We Needed.
And when we thought maybe she would ease up she released Birthday Behavior with Young Miko. A bad-girl, bilingual glorification song? Yes, BIA is familiar with her lane, knows how to make her stretch. She is demonstrating that she can make it out of the trap to the global stage without having to sweat.
BIANCA Lessons Like a Moment Bigger Than Music.
This album is not another project. It is BIA putting aside the back stage and the labels and the allusions. BIANCA heard her yelling her crown, saying,– This is me,– no filter. It is a height, lyrically, acoustically and personally.
We have already watched her conquer the sports culture, mornings television and international partnerships. She is going to present us the full length version now. And when the word of warning is with Dade comes October 10th is going to be an earthquake.
Pre-Orders Open, “Dade” IS Streaming and the Countdown On.
Dade is everywhere, BIANCA is pre-ordered, and the 10th October is circled, underlined and highlighted on the calendar. BIA is not rolling dice with this rollout and frankly? Rap needed this.
