Live Review: KUČKA perfectly reimagines Christina Aguilera's 'Beautiful'

Maria Dimitrakas

Boorloo bred/LA Based songwriter and producer KUČKA has gifted us with a cover of Christina Aguilera’s iconic track, ‘Beautiful’.

Boorloo bred/LA Based songwriter and producer KUČKA has gifted us with a cover of Christina Aguilera’s iconic track, ‘Beautiful’. It follows the release of her stunning debut LP ‘Wrestling’ from earlier this year. KUČKA is the queen of collabs, working with artists like SOPHIE (RIP), Flume, Vince Staples and so many more. This cover is indicative of her ability to add the kucka flavour into anything she touches.

The cover mirrors the bubbly vibes of the album and drags the 2002 pop anthem perfectly into her incredible sonic world. Her signature fun and futuristic production transform the track from a ballad to a bop, giving us a new and uplifting perspective of Mariah’s lyrics. Less “woe is me” more “slay”.
