Flyana Boss's "You Wish" should be your song of the summer
It’s July and the girlies are in desperate need of a song of the summer. So far, the pickings have been slim. Contenders like Fifty Fifty's "Cupid" are too sweet to pack the confident punch worthy of Barbie season. And while the Barbie soundtrack is stacked, it's yet to give us the iconic anthem that will carry us into the fall.
Fear not, "You Wish" by bestie duo Flyana Boss has arrived to fill the void. Raps from the pair have gone viral on TikTok before, but “You Wish” is that girl.
From the opening bars ("I'm a great fuck, but a better lover") to the kiss-off of a chorus (“Get like me? / Nah, you wish / You could never, ever be that bitch!"), "You Wish" delivers the kind of energy we need to get through a thousand Oppenheimer / Barbie double features.
Bobbi Lanea and Folayan Kunerede, the two women behind Flyana Boss, have been hitting the pavement to promote the single — literally. This pair is committed. Videos of them running in public while lip-syncing the lyrics have gained millions of views on TikTok and tens of thousands of likes on Twitter. Here are a few of their best:
1) The original
Flyana Boss's original viral "You Wish" video features Folayan in bright pink braids delivering her verse ("I'm made of sugar, spice, Kanekalon, and cinnamon!!!") while taking a flying leap. It's so darn charming, I dare you not to be a little enamored.
2) Disneyland
The pair dodge dozens of Disney adults and avoid a churro-related injury not once but twice.
3) IKEA
Running through miserable and/or lost couples at the Swedish furniture giant. Hope they stopped for meatballs afterward.
4) The Hollywood Walk of Fame
Running through a literal tourist trap.
