about

Cell7 has been a fixture on the Icelandic hip hop scene for over a decade. She is of Filipino descent and came of age as a defiant and joyful outsider in the Icelandic music industry. Cell7 is known not just for her skilful lyricism and impeccable flow but also for legendary live performances and an uncanny ability to get a crowd dancing and singing—even in the arctic cold of Reykjavík, where an audience’s default position is aloof observation.

This powerful track marks a new artistic direction in Cell7’s often upbeat repertoire. In this song she dives into the raw emotions that come with a difficult breakup, the struggle to “fix” things that have already fallen apart, and, finally, self-actualization and finding the strength to move on. “Fix It” is a standout track from her forthcoming album, and it showcwases personal growth and a new vulnerability that is both relatable and inspiring.

The track also underscores Cell7’s remarkable versatility, as she not only produces but also sings and raps on the track, her voice perfectly capturing both vulnerability and strength.
"Fix it" is Cell7's second single released May 12th from her forthcoming album dropping this fall.

lyrics

Do I even wanna try this?
I don't think we can revive this
Why am I willing to risk it?
Don't even know that I'm willing to risk it

Do I even wanna try this?
I don't think we can revive this
Why am I willing to risk it?
Don't even know if I'm willing to risk it

Well I guess it's outta my hands
Keep trying because we're parents
And I want to make amends
Most of the time, we're not even friends

Hung in for way too long
Can't fix it, I'm not that strong
And you know it takes two
I was alone there you stood
By myself and there you stood
There you stood
Holding my own and there you stood
By myself, you just stood

Thinking I could really fix it
You made up your mind before I did
So why am I even trying
This is what you wanted!

I felt guilt, I felt shame
My personality was to blame
And I kept toning me down
I was free when you weren't around

I was free
I was free
I was free
Honestly

Do I even want to try this? - Out of my hands
I don't think we can revive this - Way too long
Why am I willing to risk it?
Don't even know that I'm willing to risk it- Not that strong

Do I even want to try this? - Out of my hands
I don't think we can revive this
Why am I willing to risk it?
Don't even know if I'm willing to risk it

This is what you wanted

Told myself I should have seen it coming
I was busy working on myself and keep us going
Talking about my feeling, I was always in my feelings
And I'm sick and tired of you taking position of the the victim
I don't want to be the one who's always bringing up the pain
I don't want to be the only one of us who's not okay
You're telling me to drop that tone
I'm way too harsh, I'm way too intense
And I yell too much and so I just
Stopped

Stop pleading
Stop needing
Stop feeling
Stop fixing
Stop longing
Stop wanting

Gotta let you go
You're no longer good for me
Never thought I would show
That I was weak
That I was weak
That I was weak
