BADBADNOTGOOD (BBNG) is an atypical blending of jazz and hip hop that has pioneered a fresh sound and captivated fans from diverse genres. The artist surname might hint towards their music's negative vibes, yet they strike the opposite chord. This Canadian ensemble initially gained recognition through YouTube, where they offered a jazz rendition of Odd Future's music in 2011, capturing Tyler, The Creator's attention. However, it wasn't just the Odd Future covers that made waves. Their epic and unforgettable zombie apocalypse video for "CS60" put them on the map in a big way.
When they're not navigating through living-dead outbreaks onscreen, they seem to bear a curious proclivity for masks. In their mind-bending music video "Lavender," featuring Kaytranada, we see Snoop Dogg narrate a story of masked people in an alternate universe. One would think masks were their good mojo until the "I Don't Know" video came out, in which they completely abandoned their mysterious veils. Instead, we get BBNG drifting into a more serene and meditative state in nature. Interestingly, their seemingly contrasting visuals are harmoniously tied by their innovative and genre-defying music, making them one of the most badass musical architects of our time.
