The DJ Nervex Remix of Kelly Glow’s “Black Girl Magic” is a vibrant, unapologetic homage to culture, strength, and artistry. From the first few beats, the track showcases the iconic energy of ‘90s West Coast boom bap, featuring warm basslines, crisp snares, and just enough bounce to get you on the dance floor. DJ Nervex’s instrumentation, finished years prior, seems perfectly crafted for Glow’s authoritative flow; it demonstrates how sometimes the best collabs can eventually find each other, at least creatively.
Kelly Glow delivers effortlessly badass confidence from the start, with the first verse anticipating massive swagger, and the second verse commenting on history by paying homage to the groundbreaking work of Black women before her, whose legacies inform her path. This serves not only as a phenomenal example of positivity and empowerment combined with pure lyrical artistry but also serves as an anthem for young listeners to remember their worth and let their light shine.
The accompanying music video, directed by Will Thomas, gives even more volume to the track. It creates a vivid panorama of classic LA street culture, featuring cars, neon nights, and several different street dance genres to celebrate community. The decision to highlight her dancers as much as herself adds another element of brilliance to the track.
Black Girl Magic (DJ Nervex Remix) is more than just a song; it represents a cultural moment, a love of Hip Hop, and a reminder of self-love. Kelly Glow is unapologetically bold, and it's obvious that this is only the beginning of her vibrant, defiant journey.
