Wale

"Bad" is a song by American hip hop recording artist Wale. It was released on February 5, 2013, as the first single from his third studio album The Gifted (2013). The song, produced by Kelson Camp, features a guest appearance from Tiara Thomas. "Bad" has so far peaked at number 27 on the US Billboard Hot 100, making it Wale's second top 40 entry after "Lotus Flower Bomb", and becoming his highest-charting single as a lead artist.

The song was originally released on December 24, 2012, as track 6 on Wale's mixtape Folarin, but is now slated to appear on his upcoming album The Gifted.

Wale spoke about concept of the video in an interview saying, "It was an amazing experience because it felt like a real movie. The concept of the video is about a girl. She's trying to find herself by means of intimacy. She hasn't really discovered what she wants out of love or lust. It's almost a true story about some of the girls I've been with or courted." The music video was directed by Alexandre Moors.
