Are you ready to learn how to “Break a Man”? Jen Awad is a half Peruvian, half Egyptian soul artist from Los Angeles, CA, that with her powerful voice and a horn section will teach us how.
Break a Man was originally written about the fragility of men. The origin was inspired by an article I read in esquire magazine title “100 ways to build a man”. Reading the heartfelt article about men sharing their stories about their dads and those defining moments of what built them to be great men brought me to tears. Having been around so many damaged men I realized it took almost nothing to break a man. the song than progresses and discusses how sometimes a woman has to do what she has to do in order to break out of a toxic relationship even if it means hurting someone to set them selves free. it’s never the intent to destroy someone going in to a relationship..it just happens – Jen Awad
When Jen is not writing and performing her music, she is designing for her self-titled label Jen Awad, as well as the urban men’s line also out of Los Angeles called “900”. It is not a rare sight to behold her 8 piece band donning metallic bomber jackets Jen designed from the “900” label.
If you are in Los Angeles check out her show this coming Monday 8/6 at School Night and follow her on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook for more updates.
