Chicago’s own Rashida Briana just gave us an entire vibe with her new EP, Sorry, We’re in Our Feelings. This isn’t just music—it’s therapy for every woman who’s ever loved too hard, been hurt, and found her way back to herself. Rashida didn’t hold back, and it shows. Especially after taking nearly a 4 year hiatus after the release of her single "Baby You."
From the moment Kita Words starts, you know she’s about to take you there. It’s raw, reflective, and the perfect way to open a project that unapologetically leans into every feeling we’ve been told to suppress. If you’ve ever sat in your car replaying the “what-ifs” in your head, Alone is for you. It’s for the moments when solitude hits hard but also makes you stronger.
Then there’s Fraud, the anthem for calling out the liars, the manipulators, and the ones who thought they could play with your heart. Rashida said not today. But just when you think it’s all heartbreak, she flips it with Your Vibe—a track for the late-night drives with yourself or your homegirls when the conversation gets out the group chat and you both acknowledge your worth. Rashida doesn’t just sing; she speaks for us. The lyrics hit like a reminder you didn’t know you needed: "No, you can’t get next to me, and no, you can’t never throw a check at me, 'cause I know your type... I been peeped your vibe."
It’s confidence in its purest form, wrapped in a groove you’ll have on repeat.
The highlight? Blessing. A heartbreak song about no reciprocation, Blessing flips the narrative. Rashida doesn’t dwell on what’s missing—she acknowledges everything she brings to the table. This track is a declaration: she is the blessing. It’s for the women who’ve given their all and finally realized their worth isn’t tied to anyone else’s inability to match their energy. Rashida’s voice carries both pain and power, reminding us that walking away is sometimes the biggest act of self-love.
But let’s talk about Drug—Rashida dives into that messy, beautiful chaos of loving someone who’s no good for you but still feels like everything. And with Prize, she’s here to remind you of your worth, like the big sister who won’t let you settle for less. By the time you get to Pulling Up, you’ll feel seen, heard, and ready to text him back—or not. This EP is for us. For the women who feel deeply and love fiercely, even when it hurts. It’s for the girl who’s rebuilding herself, the one who’s found her peace, and even the one who’s still figuring it out. Rashida Briana made "Sorry, We’re in Our Feelings" for the girls who are tired of apologizing for being real, raw, and emotional. So, grab your headphones, pour a glass of wine, and turn this EP up. Rashida Briana just gave us the soundtrack to feeling it all—and we’re not sorry about it.
