Artist Bio Ouida (pronounced wee-duh) is an American singer/songwriter, producer and DEI activist from San Francisco, California. 
 Her music blends influences from jazz, alternative R&B and neo-soul with anthemic pop melodies and warm, visual lyricism. As a songwriter and producer, Ouida’s songs craft a lens into the relationships and cultural experiences that shaped her, unpacking themes of belonging, healing and self-empowerment. 
 Ouida released her lo-fi single, Coffee (Ride with You) at the end of 2020, followed closely by its music video that explores identity in the Filipinx diaspora and sparked international radio play and features in a variety of publications, and a title as one of Nylon Magazine’s rising musicians in 2021. 
 Her sophomore release Puerto Princesa and its music video released in March 2022, showcased Ouida's diverse writing style with an alternative r&b-pop anthem while continuing themes of cultural celebration and exchange. The music video garnered broadcast rotations on California Music Channel (CMC) and prompted press features in podcasts, local radio stations, and online publications. 
 Her newest single Nice To Meet You was released in April of 2022 and will be followed by a music video exploring her San Francisco roots and identity. Upcoming music in the works include a feature on rapper Ruby Ibarra's upcoming album and a collaboration with Irish rapper JyellowL.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I have a way with words
Then why's it hard to hear mine?
I cruise in the car
Til' the lights turn to stars
Highway 1 right down the seaside
The one that don't belong
But sometimes I like it
I'm a jade in a world full of pearls
I'm a girl tired of being different

[Pre-chorus]
But I braid my hair real long
I paint my wing real strong
Chin up everywhere I go
No I don't do it for the show
I say my piece real loud
I make myself real proud
See 'em tippin' their chapeaux
Make 'em smile and say hello like

[Chorus]
Nice to meet ya
Introduce ya
To the real me
If that ain't what you want from me
You should know I'm not sorry
Nice to meet ya
You don't have to
Understand me
You can vibe to your tempo
'Cause I'm good if ya do or don't

[Verse 2]
Daddy said to break the wheel
Pay attention to the way I feel
Breathe it out breathe it in
Feel the sun and the wind on my skin
And let it heal
Mama said to seize the day
So I carpe diem life away
I don't care if you stare
Throw ya shade
Flip your hair
That's a game we ain't gonna play
So I say

[Chorus]
Nice to meet ya
Introduce ya
To the real me
If that ain't what you want from me
You should know I'm not sorry
Nice to meet ya
You don't have to
Understand me
You can vibe to your tempo
'Cause I'm good if ya do or don't

[Bridge]
When I wanna feel free
Say fuck the negativity
You know
You know
You know

[Chorus]
Nice to meet ya
Introduce ya
To the real me
If that ain't what you want from me
You should know I'm not sorry
Nice to meet ya
You don't have to
Understand me
You can vibe to your tempo
'Cause I'm good if ya do or don't

[Chorus]
Nice to meet ya
Introduce ya
To the real me
If that ain't what you want from me
You should know I'm not sorry
Nice to meet ya
You don't have to
Even like me
You can vibe to your tempo
'Cause I'm good if ya do or don't
