Athena Scalzi Praises Madison Beer’s Yes Baby on June 15

madison beer’s “Yes Baby” got a fresh write-up on June 15, 2026, when Athena Scalzi said the track had been on repeat for the past week or so. She paired that with a blunt verdict: “it’s really fucking good.”

Athena Scalzi on KDA

“Though I’ve always loved Madison Beer’s voice in KDA, the fictional girl-pop group from League of Legends, I’ve never really listened to her own music outside of that,” Scalzi wrote. That gives the post its point of entry: a listener coming in through a game-linked project and landing on Beer’s solo work.

Scalzi then drew the line more directly. “Turns out, unsurprisingly, that she has some real bangers,” she wrote, adding that “Yes Baby,” had been “on repeat for the past week or so.”

Why Yes Baby Stuck

Scalzi’s strongest praise came down to sound, not biography. “I love the clubby feel, the soft feminine vocals, the bass,” she wrote, which is the kind of specific reaction that sends readers straight to the track instead of treating the post like idle praise.

The piece also gives Beer a useful crossover signal. KDA is described in the post as a fictional girl-pop group from League of Legends, so the recommendation reads like a bridge from game-adjacent pop to Beer’s solo catalog rather than a generic celebrity mention.

For readers deciding what to play next, the post does the practical work already: it names the song, flags the repeat-listen factor, and identifies the hooks Scalzi responded to. That is enough to turn “Yes Baby” from a passing mention into a specific recommendation, with the club pulse and vocal texture doing the selling.

John Scalzi is listed as the site proprietor, but the post itself belongs to Athena Scalzi, and her language leaves little room for ambiguity. If you want the same entry point she used, start with “Yes Baby,” and listen for the bass line and the soft vocal mix she singled out.
