(October 7, 2024) “Confident,” the new song by gospel artist Bri Babineaux, is a reminder that a Christian’s self-assurance is based in confidence in God. “Confident” is an up-tempo praise tune from an artist who brings together the bouncy boom-bat of hip-hop infused R&B with powerful messages firmly rooted in the Bible.
That explains why Babineaux has captured the ears of hip-hop luminaries like Kanye and Drake. She’s also captivated the ears of music fans as evidenced by the more than 200 million times her music has been streamed since she burst onto the scene.
“Confident” is an assertive anthem that drives home the message that believers in Christ can stand strong regardless of circumstances because the know that the Biblical promises are for them. “Confident” is a song that believers can play when “life be lifing,” as she sings. Sometimes, even the strongest believer needs a reminder that God’s got you, and Babineaux latest is one people can put on repeat in those uncertain times.
Babineaux is going through personal and artistic transitions, so the message contained in “Confident” is also a bit of self-therapy: “I’m at a place that’s both scary and exciting. On one hand I’m out here on my own but then again, with God, I’m never alone. I’m just exploring new opportunities. I’m stretching myself as an artist, I’m pursuing some enterprises and I’m also raising my son Eli. I’m just figuring it out as I go and I’m confident that God has got my back and is charting my path.”
