Bad Rabbits - Trix Are for Kids
Artist: Bad Rabbits
Producer: Jayson Dezuzio
Album: Unreleased
Label: Bad Records
As anyone who watched their DJBooth video interview with the homeboy DJ Z knows, Boston rock/r&b/pop/etc. crew Bad Rabbits have a wicked sense of humor, so it should come as no surprise that the quintet is having a little fun with their own name on the newly-released, unreleased song Trix Are for Kids. Just like their DJBooth debut cut Can’t Back Down, I’m sure that the Rabbits far-left-of-center sound will likely attract a wide-range of opinion, but personally I’m digging the sonic change of pace. We’ve heard “women are evil” tracks before, but none of them have utilized a blend of punk rock, pop synths and whatever else producer Jayson Dezuzio and the boys could cook up to get their point across. Add in some dynamic vocals from lead singer Dua Boakye and we’ve got a track the Booth’s guaranteed to love…or hate. Really, it’s one or the other. One thing’s for sure, I’m on my way right now to check out their EP Stick Up Kids, available now. Who’s with me?

I loved Trix cereal when I was a kid (now, not so much). But you know what I do love these days? The music of Bad Rabbits, who if you get to see them live on tour, will solidify your fandom as well. I know their sound is a bit alt rock/pop for what is "customary" in the Booth, but who ever said we had to play by the rules.

I don't really like it because of the change in tempo, and toward the end it just got long. Other than that it was decent.

Rock Rap huh, can't say I'm not feeling it. This was a solid effort. Gotta love creativity especially when it is combined with great lyricism and eclectic instrumentals. Chorus sounded a little off, but I'm not gonna hate because all of the verses were very consistent. As the track really began to wind down in the end, that is where my attention began to doze off. These guys carry off the Alternative Pop sound off really well. Vocals will definitely shy a couple of people away though. nice effort.

when i saw jayson dezuzio in the producer slot i had a quick doubletake- could it be? jason derulo producing a song, but i was mistaken thank goodness. i like the singer, he has a nice voice and the guitar was nice also. not something that will pop up into the booth everyday but theres nothing wrong with a little variety hey?

I fu**king loved it. As much as I obviously love hip-hop, I listen to plenty of other genres, and I'm really digging their genre-less sound. Rock Rap? Nope. Alternative? Nope. You can't call the Bad Rabbits anything, expect good. I know I may be in the minority here, but I'm a fan. And the tempo switches were a breath of fresh air after most rap track's constant time structure.

@ DJ Rater: I did the same thing lol
"I'm done with these Female Jedi's" Totally not what I was expecting and completely likable. What a bad ass name for a non typical Booth group. A little too rock for my taste but I like a lot about this track. The mix of production makes the track relatable for me. WIth all the anti-men tracks women put out I can always appreciate the retaliation track by men. |

Eclecticity at its finest...Really diggin' the rock sound mixed with the pseudo-R&B vocals.
P.S. I'm done with these female Jedis too... |

I really enjoyed the production here, but thats about it. I could listen to the instrumental on repeat, but not a fan of the vocals that were used on the track.

Really enjoyed the beat on the intro of the song and wish they would've stuck with it instead of switching it up. Ok.

Been waitin for these guys to be featured since the Interview with Z. I really dig this, and Nathan was right, you really can't categorize this, but it's good.

Hahaha! Bad Rabbits. Trix Are for Kids. Genius. This isn't something I would've expected to be on djbooth, but I'm glad it was. The beat with the guitar was good, but at some points the vocals were a little, and by a little i mean barely, hard to listen to.
