Samia tackles thorny issues of body image and dieting culture on the satirical “Fit N Full”
Hidden under a bright and breezy instrumental twang, “Fit N Full” is a track that sees Samia explores how our relationship with physical fitness and lifestyle choices can impact our personal happiness.
The need to conform to a certain societal image is a theme that Samia confronts both lyrically, as she sings of “apple cider vinegar and kale”, and in the accompanying DIY video for “Fit N Full”, featuring camcorder footage of the singer stretching on the beach and partaking in various poolside activities.
Her upcoming debut album The Baby (out 28 August) probes further into this topic by observing the impact that pop-culture and societal expectations have had on our response to the various relationships we maintain.
As Samia explains, this preoccupation with physicality would become for a period, a deeply stressful element of her life and something she felt compelled to explore in her music: "For some reason the words ‘fit’ and ‘full’ have always felt mutually exclusive to me,” she shares. “I wrote this while I was living in the east village, so overwhelmed by the magic and culture around me and literally only capable of thinking about my fucking body. I tried to write this from the perspective of the person I wanted to be instead of the person who stares at her reflection in the window of Veselka."
Ultimately, from the track emerges a defiant and empowered young woman who wishes to assert ownership over her body and her art, as exemplified by the lyric “if you want, I can take it off / and show you what my mama gave me.”
