Priscilla Block is the next big name that will be on everyone’s lips – here, Madeline Christy explores why.
Introducing Priscilla Block. You may recognise this name from last summer’s viral tiktok ‘Thick Thighs‘ hit. The North Carolina songstress is known for her raw and honest approach to the usually reserved and traditional genre through hits such as ‘Thick Thighs’ and ‘PMS‘.
Block stands for the pinnacle confidence of the 2021 modern woman; shaming body shamers and breaking the hearts of the heartbreakers. After picking up a guitar at the age of 15 in the hopes of writing relatable lines like the likes of her own songwriter idol, Taylor Swift, Block struck a chord with country music and made the giant leap to Music City, Nashville as soon as she grabbed her high school diploma.
While fans are yet to be treated to an album from Block, her latest single ‘I Bet You Wanna Know’ is the fourth single to be released, following a string of three singles released throughout 2020. Sassy and serving, the sanguine single was co-written by Block together with Stone Aielli (Lexie Hayden‘s “Go To”) and Sarah Jones (Emily Daniel‘s “Ex On The Beach”). The track depicts the triumph over a regretful ex watching you move on.
“You just wanna know where i’m at tonight / if i’m all up on someone new I like / Busch Light sippin’ / Midnight kissing / did it lead us back to my place / did he drop me off or did he stay / till the sun rose did we lose our clothes / how far’d we go / I bet you wanna know,” Block sings in the chorus.
