"Obsessed" by Addison Rae - Song Meanings and Facts (2024)

by Amanda London·March 24, 2021

The premise of Addison Rae’s “Obsessed” is the vocalist’s significant other being in love with her. She is made aware of this fact by him actually saying so.However, he didn’t do it like they did in the old days, by uttering the words ‘I love you’.Rather he and Addison are a bit of a wild, uninhibited pair.

And the way he lets this be known to her is by rather saying ‘I’m obsessed with you’, which are actually serious words that have never been spoken in this relationship before.

Well Addison does reply with a traditional “me too”.But in this case, that does not translate to ‘I’m obsessed with you too’. Rather it reads “I’m obsessed with me” also.

And just as willing as the vocalist’s boyfriend is to die for her, she also concludes that she is worth dying for, i.e. would die for herself also.Indeed even if she and her sweetheart were to break up she would possess the most-important part of this relationship, which is herself.

A Conceited Narrator?

We know right about now you might be tempted to think that Addison is being overly-conceited. However, the lyrics don’t necessarily read so.Yes, she apparently holds a high estimation of herself.For instance, the singer knows that if she wants to, she can really turn it on in the looks’ department.But even when at a party, dressed to the nines and caught up in the allure of the moment, as illustrated at the end of the second verse, her rapport with the addressee is never broken.

Also as explained byAddison in her own words, the sentiment this song is really meant to relay is “I can love myself as much as you love me”.And that is sort of the feeling being conveyed in the chorus.

In this day and age sadly enough romantic relationships don’t really tend to last.But the singer is letting her partner know right from the jump that if such were to transpire, she isn’t the type who’s going to be devastated as a result.Or rather let’s say that Rae is an artist who has a considerable amount of self-love.

So she really enjoys her boyfriend.They apparently like chillin’ together on the road and also at parties.Verily they seem to have an affinity for the same things, like “fast cars”. Moreover, the dude is really diggin’ her.And the vocalist is totally agreeing with him in that regard, as she also appreciates herself to a high degree.

“Obsessed” meets with Backlash

Addison Rae reportedly experienced a considerable deal of hating in response to this song – so much so that TikTokerDixie D’Amelio came to her defense.Another social-media star by the name of Bryce Hall, aromantic interest of Addison’s,also lent his supportto the singer in light of backlash she underwent after coming out with“Obsessed”.

However, it is understandable that despite this song going viral – its music video receiving half-a-million views in four days for instance – it may not be to some people’s acoustic liking.

That is because Addison, at least at this juncture in history, is first and foremost a social-media star.In fact“Obsessed”, which came out on 19 March 2021, is her first song release ever.Indeed under normal circ*mstances, Rae, who at the time is 20 years old, wouldn’t even be considering a music career.But taking into account that she is one of the most-popular and thusrichest internet personalities in the world, then it becomes a matter of well, why not.
