Listen! As pop goes, ‘Dumbitchitis’ is an absolute masterpiece. No, we are not afraid to use such an impactful definition, as it fits the record at hand. Emboldened by genius, hook-laden songwriting and relatable romantic imagery, the single also flourishes on a vibrant contemporary production, the perfect match for Kristina Wilson’s potent, luscious vocals. Often observed transcending into a cluster of harmonies, the Australian songstress’s vocal tone is electrifying – to die for.
If you don’t believe us, wait until ‘Dumbitchitis’ stadium-ready outro: one of the most brilliant pop motifs we have heard lately. But enough yapping about sounds and production… ‘Dumbitchitis’ finds its winning ticket in its curious plot device. Describing the feeling of being continuously trapped in dysfunctional relationships, the song becomes a cathartic, epic anthem aimed at reclaiming independence and emotional balance.
As Wilson eloquently explains: “I wrote ‘Dumbitchitis’ after a friend used the word to describe why we stay in bad relationships, like it’s a virus you catch when you’re in love with someone, or maybe just the fantasy of them. It felt so real and funny that I had to turn it into a song.” Also featuring sisters duo Like Angels, ‘Dumbitchitis’ is taken from Kristina’s upcoming album ‘Dating Broken Boys’.
Benefitting from playful yet reflective lyricism, ‘Dumbitchitis’ provides an impressive snapshot of Kristina Wilson’s pop prowess. The record is perfect; catchy, relatable, vibrant and uplifting. What more could you wish for?
