Cherym have covered Doja Cat’s Boss B*tch for International Women’s Day

Cherym have covered Doja Cat’s 2020 mega-hit Boss Bitch for International Women’s Day, and it’s absolutely brilliant.

And the Derry duo have made their rocking rendition a charity effort, too, with a portion of proceeds going toward the charity Women For Women’s Palestine appeal.

“For International Women’s Day this year we decided we wanted to do something different,” explains guitarist/vocalist Hannah Richardson. “We wanted to take our own approach to a song that we felt inspired by. We’ve always felt drawn to Doja Cat’s originality and her take on femininity, which is why we felt so connected to this track in particular. Boss Bitch to us is empowering, energetic and has what we would call raw bad bitch energy.

“The first time I watched the Boss Bitch music video it really conveyed to me what a strong woman is, being able to see life through the lens of a woman instead of being subjected to the male gaze,” Hannah adds. “This is something we wanted to portray for our own version of the song, conveying femininity, masculinity or anything in between through our own self autonomy rather than what’s expected of us as women and femme presenting people.”
