Dropped as BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record in the World last night, the electro-pop banger features her trademark smoky vocals.
Irish-raised, London-based artist Biig Piig is back with her first offering of the year.
The blistering 'FUN' follows up on the producer's recent collaboration with fellow NiNE8 Collective member Lava La Rue’s single ‘Hi-Fidelity’.
Infused with captivating electronic synth elements and a drum 'n' bass beat, Biig Piig's sultry, angelic vocals allows the stand out track to come to life with flair.
Speaking about her latest single, Jessica Smyth (aka Biig Piig) describes it as “about bickering with a partner, and being sick of it. ‘FUN’ is also about how you can bring out a childish part of each other when no one else really gets that part of you, the good and the bad. No one gets under your skin or pushes your buttons like the ones you love the most.”
The West London-based rapper, singer and producer signed to RCA Records a few years ago and has since released The Sky Is Bleeding EP in 2021. It followed Big Fan of the Sesh, Vol. 1, A World Without Snooze, Vol. 2 and No Place for Patience, Vol. 3 (her first with a label).

Biig Piig recently performed on the Forbidden Fruit Main Stage at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham.
Smyth began uploading her music to Soundcloud back in 2016. In 2017 her single 'Vice City' caught the attention of digital music platform COLORS, who invited her to record a live video session of the song at their Berlin studios. This landed Biig Piig her big break.
