Guess what’s making a comeback from the musical vault? Brit Smith’s long-lost anthem, “Karma’s a B-tch” is back from its extended vacation!
Throwing us back over a decade, this track was originally in the hands of none other than Miley Cyrus, who apparently took a rain check on it. Can you imagine Miley belting out those lyrics? The world missed out on some serious potential there!
Timbaland sprinkled his magic production dust on it, and it was all set to strut its stuff on Brit’s debut album. But hold your applause, because that album never saw the light of day, and Brit gracefully moonwalked out of the entertainment scene. Classic case of what-could-have-been!
Cut to present day: JoJo Siwa drops her own tune titled “Karma” and suddenly, Brit’s song decides to make a sneaky appearance, complete with an unreleased music video! Talk about unexpected plot twists!
Now, “Karma’s a B-tch” is lounging comfortably in the top 10 on iTunes, sipping on some well-deserved recognition. But of course, where there’s success, there’s also a sprinkle of controversy. Some folks are pointing fingers at JoJo for ‘borrowing’ Brit’s vibes, but JoJo’s like, “Nah, I’m good, thanks!”
In an exclusive chat with Page Six, Brit spills the beans on the resurrection of “Karma.” Turns out, it was supposed to be her big debut, but life had other plans. She ended up taking the road less traveled, leaving “Provocative” to steal the spotlight instead. Oops!
Now that “Karma” is back on the scene, Brit’s feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. She’s all like, “Shoulda, woulda, coulda gone with ‘Karma’ from the start!” Better late than never, right?
And what about those comparisons between her version and JoJo’s rendition? Brit takes it all in stride, graciously tipping her hat to JoJo’s take on the track. After all, music is like pizza—there’s no such thing as too many toppings!
