Kenadi Dodds Unveils Debut Single ‘Toxic’

20-year-old pop powerhouse and America’s Got Talent finalist Kenadi Dodds makes a fearless debut with her first original single Toxic, a defiant summer anthem for anyone who’s ever been made to feel like the problem! 

 

What I like the most about this song is how passionate and confident Kenadi's vocals are, effortlessly capturing our attention to her relatable storytelling. Produced by multi-platinum hitmaker Brian Howes (Daughtry, Simple Plan, Nickelback), Toxic finds the talented artist exploring the emotional toll of navigating relationships while living with ADHD, while also delivering a bold, defiant punch. This emotional, unapologetic flirty pop-rock anthem channels bold feminine energy and cheeky confidence that create an anthemic atmosphere perfect to sing along to. Apart from her gorgeous vocals I am particularly fond of the soaring guitar riffs seamlessly intertwined with delicate piano keys and punchy drum patterns that come together to create an overall high-energy and empowering atmosphere that captures that moment of turning pain into power and walking away stronger, louder, and more self-assured!

Speaking about the song, Kenadi Dodds said,

Growing up with ADHD, I always felt like I had a hard time maintaining friendships and relationships. I love people, I always have. But over time, I started to feel like maybe I was the problem. ADHD can make communication tricky. ‘Toxic’ is about owning who you are, even when the world tries to tell you that you’re too much. I’ve had to learn a lot about myself. I’ve had to grow, adapt, and find strategies to navigate relationships in a way that works for me. ADHD doesn’t make me toxic. It makes me different. It makes me who I am. And that’s exactly what this song is about.
