BIA Releases Official Debut Album “BIANCA”
BIA’s illustrious career, marked by multi-platinum records, awards nominations, and global impact, enjoys a seminal moment today with the release of her official, full-length debut album, BIANCA, available now.
The 16-track album executive is produced by DaHeala (The Weeknd, Lil Uzi Vert, Halsey) as well as long-time collaborators AzizTheShake and Lil Rich. The debut full length album led by the singles “We On Go,” known for its soundtracking of the WNBA Playoffs and Women’s March Madness, as well as “One Thing,” “Birthday Behavior,” featuring Young Miko and the most recent, “Dade,” featuring Key Glock. BIA is also joined by Ty Dolla $ign, Becky G, Young Miko, Ferg, Denzel Curry, Tyler ICU, Khalil Harrison and more. Elsewhere, like on her vibrant and reminiscent song with Becky G, “The Hard Way,” BIA breathes fresh life into her penchant for international collaboration on a clear album standout replete with hard-edged rap delivery.
“[My album] is definitely who I am. Like who’s Bianca? Who is Bia? to the same person but there’s duality between the two,” BIA says of her self-titled debut album. “Who I am as an artist every day, and who I am as a person every day with my friends and family and my loved ones. It’s just a little bit more vulnerable.”
Since her unequivocal 2021 breakout, highlighted by the multi-platinum “Whole Lotta Money,” BIA has consistently delivered on her creative promise to be musically boundless. On BIANCA, she merges her penchant for experimentation with some of the most intimate and revealing songwriting of her career. The result is a fascinating look into both her professional journey and her personal one, ranging from tales of making it out of her tumultuous Massachusetts upbringing to her journey to and through womanhood.
On the album’s intro, “October,” BIA immediately teases the depth BIANCA reaches, rapping, “I can’t pretend that I don’t feel nothing at all / ‘Cause if I did I wouldn’t be around to hold you when you fall.” On “Sad Party,” despite the EDM and Amapiano-adjacent atmosphere, BIA doesn’t hold back her feelings of longing.
“I think all great artists should be able to improve and have that space and room to,” BIA says, as she addresses her noteworthy versatility. “So I think that there’s something beautiful in artists that are able to shape-shift into different genres and sounds because they might have studied that or they might be able to effortlessly do that.”
BIA’s recent road to the release of BIANCA was stocked with highlights, including her live performance of “We On Go” on Good Morning America during WNBA All-Star Weekend. The record, which has been a mainstay on some of ESPN’s biggest sports programming this year, received an upgrade for the official release of BIANCA, and welcomed A$AP Ferg and Denzel Curry to its fold. “We On Go” earned ‘Song of the Week’ honors from Billboard and XXL, was featured on the official Madden 2026 and NBA2K6 soundtrack,and has sustained its hype as one of the year’s most ubiquitous songs.
Since joining Epic Records in 2020, BIA’s diligent work ethic has offered her the opportunity to build an active and engaged audience that travels with her on each stop of her journey. The For Certain and Really Her EPs, which teased BIA’s sonic fluidity with collaborations with Timbaland, J. Cole and Tiësto, were microcosms of today’s full-fledged offering, and as her profile continues to grow, so does her fans’ commitment, whether it’s flocking to stops on Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 World Tour, or supporting BIA’s Beauty For Certain cosmetic collaboration with Urban Outfitters.
Today, BIA’s journey comes full circle. BIANCA, the debut album, is available now.
