The songwriting of Sadie Dupuis has always possessed a hard edge of honesty, but in her new single “Get A Yes” Dupuis goes further by using bedroom pop as a vessel for defining a topic often dodged: consent.

The song’s message echoes the work of her Boston-born band Speedy Ortiz, which has made moves to insure safety for its fans at shows, especially in the past year. Without guitar, Dupuis’ voice sounds extra personal in this solo track, declaring facts such as “I say yes to the dress when I put it on. I say yes if I want you to take it off.” Less rock and more pop, the song listens like a lesson that Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears, though remarkable in their own right, never taught us.

“Get A Yes” is off of Slugger, Dupuis’ debut solo album under the moniker Sad13. The album comes out November 11 on Carpark Records.
