Hip Hop and R&B prodigy DYLI releases a smashing new single called “Pretty Brown Hair.” The brilliant singer-songwriter and rapper stands out with her magnetism and distinctive sound, exhibiting superb technical and lyrical skills.
The inspiration of “Pretty Brown Hair” comes from “Regina George;” the blonde antagonist of the 2004 feature film Mean Girls. DYLI visualizes a brunette version of the fictional character and unravels her writing process: “I wrote “Pretty Brown Hair” as a fun way to represent all the beautiful brunettes out there. There has always been a stigma about blondes being the hot cheerleader, the mean girl, the popular socialite or “the fun one”…from movies like Legally Blonde and Mean Girls, to Clueless and There’s Something About Mary, there’s no denying the effect of a hot blonde.”
The song points out the fun-loving and confident side of the versatile artist, especially in the second verse where DYLI sings: “When I step out I be lit/ He was trippin, told him hold on to my wrist/ If I were to help out everybody they’d be pissed/ That’s why I just focus on the money/ Pay your rent/ He said “Can I take a pic?”/ Are you for real?/ You seen it all when we’re lookin in the mirror/ Yeah, she fine but it ain’t no need to stare/ Put that phone down, touch my pretty brown hair/ touch my pretty brown hair.”
“Pretty Brown Hair” is the follow-up to DYLI’s “New Bag,” which came out last month. It’s a shout-out to all the self-assured and proud brown-haired girls who aren’t afraid to flaunt their beauty and charm.
