Emerging from Wilmington, Massachusetts, BRODIE has carved out his place in the music industry as a visionary artist who defies genre boundaries. Known for mixing the worlds of rap, R&B, and alternative pop, his recent releases—”Thursday (Worst Way)” and “Took Off in a Mercedes“—are prime examples of his artistic evolution and unrelenting drive to push musical boundaries.
“Thursday (Worst Way)” and “Took Off in a Mercedes,” bring a fresh burst of energy to BRODIE‘s already impressive catalog. He continues to evolve, delivering tracks that pulse with energy and danceable grooves while still staying true to his introspective songwriting style.
“Thursday (Worst Way)” has a rhythmic flow that grabs you from the start. With a beat that kicks in immediately, the track rides on a dynamic, bouncy production that blends R&B and rap seamlessly. While it deals with themes of regret and self-doubt, the song never loses its infectious groove. BRODIE’s delivery is matched by a driving rhythm that makes it clear—this is a track you can feel in your bones. Lines like “I got so much sh*t to do / Like, what was I doing in the first place?” reveal an anxious, almost frantic energy, but the rhythm of the song propels it forward, creating a perfect blend of tension and release.
Then, there’s “Took Off in a Mercedes,” which takes things to a whole new level. If “Thursday (Worst Way)” offers an energetic reflection, “Took Off in a Mercedes” is pure rhythmic fire. From the first few notes, it’s clear this track is meant for the dancefloor. The beat is infectious, and the pulsating rhythm drives the track forward in a way that makes it impossible not to move. BRODIE effortlessly transitions into a more danceable space with a song that captures the highs of a wild night out. Lyrics like “My social battery dying / Got a hotel room, and my ride home ain’t replying” give it an introspective edge, but the overall vibe is undeniably high-energy. With its catchy hook and energetic tempo, it feels like a track made for celebration, but with enough emotional depth to keep it grounded.
Together, these two tracks show a different side of BRODIE. While his previous releases have leaned into the emotional and introspective, these songs embrace the vibrant, rhythmic pulse of modern music. “Thursday (Worst Way)” and “Took Off in a Mercedes” combine the best of both worlds—energetic, danceable beats with thought-provoking lyrics. BRODIE has clearly mastered the art of keeping things fresh and dynamic while still remaining true to his unique voice.
