Brooklyn's Bdot Brings a New Sound to the Borough on Single "Damn"

January 31, 2024 Daniel Francis

Bdot, “Damn”

Bdot is a rising underground artist from the vibrant borough of Brooklyn, New York.

CTFBdot is a self-motivated creative, utilizing music as a therapeutic tool for managing his buzzing thoughts. The artist has developed a method of getting these flowing ideas into an actualized collection of poetic lyricism showcased across his discography.

His most recent single, "Damn" is filled with punchlines and a unique flow over a vibey, upbeat, and energetic backtrack. My favorite bar off the song comes when Bdot brings up astrological compatibility with a girl to complete a verse, then hops back in with a new flow, melodically rapping "I'm an Aries, by the way. Got a baddie who live in the Bay."

In an exclusive interview with RSO, Bdot gives some insight into his personality and creative process.

RSO Underground Interview with Bdot

Who are you?

My name is Bdot.

Where are you from? (How is the music scene there?)

I’m from Brooklyn, NY where the music scene is very diverse but also has a lot of the same sounds.

Why did you get into the music/creative industry?

I got into the music creation industry because I was thinking a million thoughts a day and shit was driving me crazy so I picked up a pen and started formulating my thoughts into songs which helped ease my mind a lot

Who and what inspires you?

Honestly speaking I feel like I inspire myself and the want to reach success and move my family to bigger and better places also motivates me. I’ve seen myself battle so much and go through so much tough times that all I want is success for myself.

Do you have any stories of your artistic journey to share?

I don’t really have any stories but I know my journey will definitely produce some.

What song/project are you currently promoting and what is the story behind it?

Right now I’m currently promoting my song Damn, my first drop of 20204. So with that song it actually wasn’t finished when I took it to the Stu and when I got to the Stu i mistakenly said damn which I ironically sounded good in the song so I used that Damn to my advantage and created a catchy vibey song.

What is one thing people would be surprised to know about you?

I feel like people would be surprised to know that that I’m a hardcore introvert and I’m most happy when I’m by myself creating.

Where can we find your music and art?

My music is on all platform under B_dot and ctfbdot on YouTube

What is your message to the world?

Keep grinding and never give up on yourself. I slept on myself so much and I alway regret that I wasted all that time so just go for what you want and be confident in your work.
