“That’s Her” is a confident anthem celebrating independent women. What inspired you to write this song, and what does the phrase ‘Bad Girls Rule The World’ mean to you personally?
I was inspired by people in my life personally, it is something that came about naturally. Alike to all of my writing, it was very spiritual and free flowing, the song wrote itself. The energy of the melody came about first, followed by the lyrics and total composition of the song. The phrase to me is just a reflection of the reality we live in, in a lot of ways it’s true, just a fact of life.
You’ve mentioned influences like Michael Jackson, Lenny Kravitz, and Ne-Yo. How have these icons shaped your music and performance style?
Michael Jackson is responsible for the soul in the song, Lenny Kravitz the groove and Ne-Yo would be the vocal style. I try my best to be a complete artist by adopting techniques and musical inflictions from as many great sources as possible.
“Bad Girls Rule The World” is a bold and empowering mantra. What inspired you to put this message at the heart of “That’s Her”?
I was inspired by other songs which speak about “Bad Girls”, I thought I would add my own rendition of a song about bad girls and “That’s Her” is what happened.
The phrase has a bit of sass and ego — how do you balance empowerment with playful attitude in your music?
Music for me is supposed to be fun, my music is innocent in nature and meant to be enjoyed, this song reflects that as it doesn’t delve deep into any certain topic or area but is rather portraying a general feeling.
The song celebrates independence and strength — what do you think music’s role is in shifting cultural perceptions around female empowerment?
Girls can be bad too. In every way. Swagger doesn’t discriminate, neither do I. Music is the best catalyst for any possible positive change in the world, it unites everyone, which is another reason for me to love it so much.
Do you see “Bad Girls Rule The World” as a broader movement or mindset that extends beyond just this song?
It could be seen as a broader movement, I certainly believe it already is a big movement, if you look out into the world you can see this narrative in a lot of places.
And lastly, what else is in store for Ronzoni Hines in 2025?
More fantastic music, true artistry and pure entertainment.
