Crazy? Or Just Honest? Giselle Owns the Moment on “Sweet Baby”

There’s something about a pop song that tells the truth without flinching. Not the polished, PR-approved version. Not the “it’s fine, I’m fine” version. The real one. And with “Sweet Baby,” Giselle leans all the way into that honesty, heels on, chin up, music loud.

Originally from Boston and raised in Buffalo before betting on herself and heading to Los Angeles at 21, Giselle isn’t new to the grind. She’s been singing since she was five, writing since she was eight, and somewhere in between mastering piano, drums, guitar, violin, and ukulele, she built the kind of musical muscle you can’t fake. You can hear it in her voice, trained, but not stiff. Emotional, but controlled. Confident, but still human.

“Sweet Baby” lives in that delicious pop/R&B pocket where melody meets message. Inspired in part by the TV show Scandal and her own lived experiences, the song unpacks the moment you find out there’s another woman, and instead of turning her into the villain, you choose something braver. You choose yourself. It’s not about screaming or fighting. It’s about clarity.

Giselle doesn’t blame the other woman. She speaks directly to her. Woman to woman. Truth to truth. The song captures that sharp, surreal feeling of realizing you’ve been lied to, and then deciding you won’t be silenced about it. There’s a steady pulse under the track, something danceable, almost intoxicating. But listen closer and you’ll catch the steel in her delivery. She’s not asking for permission to tell her side.

What makes “Sweet Baby” hit differently is that it balances vulnerability with swagger. The hook makes you want to dance around your room while getting ready for a night out. It’s the kind of track you blast in the car with the windows down. But lyrically? It’s a declaration. A reminder that when people twist narratives and try to paint you as “crazy,” that doesn’t make it true. In fact, Giselle flips that idea on its head. If being “normal” means staying quiet and shrinking yourself, she’s not interested. If speaking up gets labeled dramatic? So be it. There’s something freeing about that energy, and it seeps through every beat.

The music video doubles down on that confidence. There’s choreography, real choreography. Giselle pushed herself to dance again on camera, and it shows. The visuals feel alive, playful, sharp. Even more impressive? She directed and edited the video herself. That DIY spirit adds another layer to the project. This isn’t just a singer showing up to perform. This is an artist building her own world.

And she’s not slowing down. Giselle is set to perform live at Whisky a Go Go on March 5th a full-circle moment for any artist carving out space in LA’s competitive scene. If “Sweet Baby” is any indication, the stage is going to feel less like a show and more like a release.

At its core, the song isn’t just about a love triangle. It’s about reclaiming your voice. It’s about telling the truth even when it’s uncomfortable.

“Sweet Baby” doesn’t beg to be believed. It stands tall and lets the truth speak for itself, beat by beat.
