Here’s a lady who needs no introduction.

She’s beaten cancer, found the love of her life, and shelled out a slough of platinum selling records. And all the while, she has remained an unfaltering rock icon, a jewel amidst the swill. She’s Bif Naked, and her awesomeness is limitless. By far, she ranks in my list of female (and vegan) rolemodels, and will always hold the title of Most Kickass. All of her bases are covered, from her raw talent to her visceral energy when performing, to her innovative musical technique.

Her look and lyrical style are all about uniqueness, driving in the exact opposite direction from the rest of the crowd. That’s the way she’s always been, and that’s the way she’ll remain. Bif has been one to experiment with different musical styles (who can forget the ultra-techno track Spaceman), and is never afraid to give it her all and pick herself up.

Her vocals are backed by a styling crew of mash-it-up maniacs, and although the band members have changed over the years, they always seem to have perfect chemistry. This sizzling beauty is not even close to shutting down; her most recent album was just out last year, and she’s keeping herself busy with touring and sponsoring an exorbitance of charities. Whether it’s The Breast Cancer Foundation or Habitat for Humanity, Bif Naked is all over it. For a lady who’s had to bash her own personal demons, she sure has got a full agenda. Guess she’s a good inspiration to get out there and lend a helping hand, even if we’re not in the best place in our lives.

So many of her songs have become my go-to sound for unleashing the attitude gene. It’s clear where that drive in her music comes from! Her latest album gets back to basics, ripping into the core of struggle, pain, and perseverance (no doubt a lot of which was inspired by her battle with cancer). Her pieces can set you into such a melodious mood, that you’ll be screaming from the rooftops in no time.

With enough steam in her voice to cloud up windows, Bif Naked has become a lady of all trades, and has always come out a conqueror.

Rocking pipes? Check. Unbelievable motivation? Check. Rocker chic? Check. Love for life, for peace, for smooth tunes? Check, check, and check. One song from her 2009 album Promise called Sick really hit hard on me. It came out almost a year ago exactly, but the power hasn’t dwindled. You can check out the video below.
