Home Music BC Jean Survives Beyonce, Gets Her First Hit

BC Jean–she’s 22, and we wrote about her first, in this column, last year. Beyonce tried to take her song, “If I Were a Boy,” for herself and claim authorship. In the end, this talented singer songwriter from Southern California got a $250,000 settlement and a deal with Clive Davis‘s team, which pursued her. Now BC has her first hit, “I’ll Survive You,” co-written and produced with the Max Martin team. Great hit, and I can’t help but keep hearing that tinkling toy piano reiterating the melody line in the background. BC has a great voice that’s unmistakably hers. The countdown is on her for her album. Good guys do finish first! Hear the new song in the video player on our front page.

Share and Enjoy !
