"Cringe" by Spanish artist Beba, featuring Samurai Jay, is a sharp and catchy clap-back at the social-media circus. Over a club-ready beat, Beba rolls her eyes at influencers who chase likes, filters, and paid vacations instead of real self-esteem. She mocks the endless “marketing weekend,” the overnight DJs with manufactured glamour, and the idea that follower counts can replace genuine talent. Her invitation to “see me without filters” flips the script, celebrating authenticity while labeling the faux-luxury lifestyle as nothing more than cringe.
Samurai Jay jumps in to echo the sentiment. He reminds listeners that he built his name through hard work, not algorithm tricks, and warns anyone who reduces relationships to Insta-follows. Together the two artists deliver a playful yet pointed anthem that asks: Are you living for yourself or for the feed? If it is the latter, they will call you out—because pretending is, quite simply, cringe.
