Artistry

Influences

[edit]

Bernadya cites Taylor Swift, Niki, Tulus, and Raisa as her influence in creating music. She explained that Tulus had a distinctive approach in writing lyrics, meanwhile she grew up listening to Raisa's music.[23] In an Apple Music playlist, she added Lizzy McAlpine, Olivia Rodrigo, Day6, Bruno Major, Paramore, Phoebe Bridgers, Bilal Indrajaya, The Bird and the Bee, Laufey, and John Mayer as the artists who had influenced her in music.[24]

Music

[edit]

Bernadya has been known for releasing melancholic and heartbreak-themed tracks.[25] She often utilizes "modest" lyrics and everyday language in her songs.[26] In his four-and-a-half star review of Sialnya, Hidup Harus Tetap Berjalan, Anto Arief of Pophariini described her storytelling ability as one of the strongest parts of the album. He further mentioned that Bernadya's strength among her peers was her ability to connect through her lyrics. He described Sialnya, Hidup Harus Tetap Berjalan as a "guide book for understanding the thoughts and feelings of a woman towards her partner."[a][27]
