BAYLA Breaks the Stigma Around Mental Health on Bold, Uplifting Pop Anthem, “Anxious”

by Leslie Sherman July 15, 2025 12:14 pm Tagged With: singer, songwriter

Billboard-charting pop artist BAYLA is back with a powerful new single, “Anxious.” Known for her anthemic sound and fearless vulnerability, BAYLA continues to inspire fans with music that breaks stigma and speaks truth in and outside of the LGBTQ+ communities. In support of the release, proceeds from “Anxious” will be donated to Canadian mental health organizations, further highlighting the importance of awareness and support.

“Anxious” offers an honest take on the often hidden reality of living with anxiety. Rather than framing it as something sad or shameful, BAYLA infuses the track with upbeat production and quirky energy, crafting a pop anthem that’s more theme song than tragedy. “I didn’t want the song to feel sad in any way,” she shares. “I wanted it to reflect the experience of anxiety in a real, empowering way because even when it’s hard, we’re not alone.”

“Anxious” is a raw, heartfelt track that explores the emotional rollercoaster of living with anxiety – a subject I know intimately and wanted to address with honesty and empowerment. It’s about not being ashamed of your mental health – it’s a part of who we are. – BAYLA

As the collective attention span shrinks, Eddie Canyon finds himself searching for meaning within the noise. Reaching into and around his Arkansas roots, Eddie carves a distinctively southern Hip Hop undercurrent in his exploratory approach to music. Weaving tales of battling addiction, thoughts on spirituality, and irreverent social commentary into his lyrics, Eddie aims to intrigue his audience at the least, and at most, leave them with a liberating degree of thoughtfulness. In his own words: “The Matrix is real, but there’s a way out.” Support on Spotify or Bandcamp.
