Review: "Big Duck Energy" - Oda Loves You


Oda Loves You, "Big Duck Energy," Cover Art

Oda Loves You’s latest single “Big Duck Energy” gives the term "BDE" a whole new meaning. The artist’s new track is a song that is essentially an anthem for the girls that calls out the shady boys. When you’re so infatuated with a person, it can be easy to ignore the red flags that are right in front of you. However, “Big Duck Energy” is a song that’s here to remind you that when someone shows you who they are, believe them. I also love this song because, in a way, it’s incredibly empowering. Oda Loves You wants women to know their worth and realize how strong they really are. No one deserves to be in a relationship where they’re not respected or valued. The lyrics, “Wasn’t your fault, but you chose to allow it // Give em up girl, he’s shady,” really push this message forward, making “Big Duck Energy” the new female empowerment anthem.



“Big Duck Energy” is a fun, empowering anthem, but it’s also a certified bop. The song starts off with a thumping kick drum that adds a bit of mystique just before Oda’s piercing vocals kick in. Her harmonies and layered vocals were what made the song shine. Plus, Oda’s lyricism was witty, clever, and all about self-worth – which I absolutely loved. The incorporation of various beats throughout, gave the song an upbeat, pop vibe with an infectious swagger that made the track an instant favorite. In addition, if the song’s title wasn’t enough indication of what the track was about, the quack noise at the very end just might give listeners a playful hint.
