Between shots at nameless women and cautionary tales about living and loving in 2021, “Yebba’s Heartbreak” stood out as a legitimate love song — a ballad, if you will. The only CLB track sans-Drake, singer/songwriter Yebba Smith handled all of the vocals and delivered one of the most moving performances of the year.
One week later, Yebba came back with her own album, Dawn, and hit fans directly in their collective heart.
“Boomerang,” Dawn’s third track, tells a story of an ex-lover and includes the guarantee that everything they did to hurt Yebba, will come back around to get them. The song, which already received an official music video, was well-received and with it’s sustained success, the “Yebba’s Heartbreak” singer decided to give it a live treatment. Backed by Charles Myers on the guitar, Burniss Travis playing bass, Malachi Mabson on the keys, & Justin Tyson playing drums, Yebba belts out the threatening-but-groovy record in a lamplit studio and “Boomerang” is brought to life.

[Verse 1]
If I shoot him in the stomach
Then he’s hurting on my dime
And if I shoot him in the head, then he’s dead and he’s livin’ on my mind
My reflection in the mirror
Her perfection in his eyes
I’m a danger to myself
I run from twelve
And take my rage across the county line, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
But I won’t let this go
Not my tomorrow
Don’t forget your pride, it’s laying in her bed of sorrow
[Chorus]
What you done to me
I swear to you it’s gonna come back like a boomerang
Wooooo
Wooooo
Woooooooooo
[Verse 2]
You knew my daddy didn’t like you
From the moment you two met
He knew too well, you would drag me through Hell
And never come back for the baby we’d regret
Oh
[Pre-Chorus]
But I won’t let this go
Not my tomorrow
Don’t forget your pride
It’s laying in her bed of sorrow
[Chorus]
What you, what you done to me
I swear to you it’s gonna come back like a boomerang
Woooooo
Wooooo
Woooooooooo
What you done to me
I swear to you it’s gonna come back like a boomerang
And knock you to your knees
I swear to you it’s gonna come back like a boomerang
Woooooo
Woooo
Wooooo
