Recording “F* UR F150” was an absolute blast for Mandi.

With her best friend and mom joining in on the gang vocals, the recording process was not only cathartic but also incredibly empowering.
Inspiration Behind “F Ur F150”
“F* UR F150” draws inspiration from a personal experience where Mandi dealt with someone who love-bombed her and then asked to keep the relationship low-key because of an age gap. The song, a fun and sassy anthem, is about reclaiming power and saying goodbye to those who play games. Mandi’s message is clear: mess with us, and we’ll mess with your ride.
