Shortly after her RUBADGE win
and its official release on the 4th episode of Drag Race Down Under vs. The
World Season 1, M1ss Jade So unveils a devilish drag look
accompanied by a new song of the same name, “BAPHOMETA”, produced by
collaborator Naive Supreme—out now, under Offshore
Music.
Coming down from the clouds of nebula, the esoteric Drag
Queen superstar and current Filipino pride, M1ss Jade So, morphs into the
occult figure “Baphomet” for the category “Wildlife Couture” in the latest
episode of the Drag Race competition. The transformation draws inspiration from
her initial idea of dressing up as a goat. Still, in true M1ss Jade So fashion,
she pushed the envelope further and adapted the character “BAPHOMETA”—a
mix of the polarizing being and her own obscure, twisted yet personal vision.
“I like creating art that is provocative,” shares M1ss Jade So. Based on the stream of looks and music she has released throughout her career, such as her bloody sex-pop debut release “Power Top na Bratzy (2024),” her gritty underground beat “ESOTERICA (2026),” and the divine track that followed this recent release, “GODDESSA (2026),” M1ss Jade So has cemented her artistry and being as nothing but provocative.
The fallen angel doll dominatrix shares more about the song's interesting
lyrical choices, saying the mix of provocative and playful songwriting makes
the dark, occult themes more interesting. “Pette [Shabu] (co-writer) and I
didn’t want BAPHOMETA to feel purely sinister or serious. We wanted it
to have this mad, destructive but almost playful energy, where you’re having
fun with something that is actually quite dark underneath.”
Similar
to the meaning behind the idea of Baphomet, M1ss Jade So was also drawn to the
figure because of what it represents: the duality of the feminine and the
masculine, light and darkness, mortal and divine. “That [ideas] felt very
connected to my own experience as a drag artist, where I constantly play with
identity, beauty, and transformation.”
Overpower
evil within and listen to “BAPHOMETA” by M1ss Jade So, out now on all streaming platforms—with a music video watch
party happening September 5 at Hoesik, Makati. More details here.
