Saweetie dropped her new single “Is It The Way,” produced by J. White Did It, and released on Friday, September 27th. This spicy hip hop hit is a teaser of her 2025 debut album Pretty B**ch Music. The upcoming album is supposed to have at least 10 songs, which she has been hyping up for a long time, leaving fans eagerly on their toes. The other songs she has released from this album so far include “My Best,” “NaNi,” and “Richtivities,” which was also produced by J. White Did It. This song is the epitome of a soulful vibe and fun trap beats.
Her song highlights Jill Scott by sampling “The Way” in the chorus. By incorporating Jill Scott’s Is It the Way, Saweetie taps into an iconic soul track that evokes feelings of love and emotional depth. This connects the listener to a more classic R&B sound, while Saweetie’s modern rap delivery adds her own twist to it, merging the two generations of music.
Saweetie shares that this song is a “dedication” to all the women around the world, and she hopes it channels the “ICY girl mentality.” This song features bold, confident, and raw lyrics about love, attraction, and female empowerment. Her lyrics include lines such as, “Is it the way I walk? Is it the way I talk? Is it the way I keep it G? Is it the way I keep it planned? Is it the way I do my hair?” She confronts the men who desire and lust after her, putting herself on a pedestal and embodying pure confidence. She wants other women to look up to these lyrics and reach their fullest potential with this high self-esteem and unstoppable mindset.
