About This Track

‘Acne’ by Ashnikko is a 2020 track that leans into a brash, confrontational persona, with lyrics that compare their impact to something eruptive and irritating. The verse in the provided snippet frames a return with aggressive physical imagery, then shifts into chaotic, slangy insults and self-mythologising, culminating in an outlandish party of references to being worshipped and causing a volatile stir. One quoted phrase captures the central metaphor: ‘bumping like acne’.

"Acne" is a track by Ashnikko, released 8th July 2020. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 18 articles about Ashnikko.

Lyrics

Acne

Lyrics from Snippet

Bitch, I'm back and I'm bumping like acne

Cardiac attack-y, pussy wacky

I’m the drug you find in plastic baggies

They call me mommy and daddy

That’s right, I made my kids happy

Super stupid, I’m flappy

I'm in your stoop like [?]

Pussy pop like a rubber band

And it’s fat like the muffin man

And secure like the government

It's nutritious like supplements

Teacher’s pet with the upper hand

This beat banging, percussion band

It’s just like you don’t understand

I am hotter than summer tan

Bump, bump, bump, bump like

Bump, bump, bump, bump like

Bump, bump, bump, bump like

Bump like, bump like, bump like acne

    Ashnikko shows that bolder is better at London's O2 Forum Kentish Town

    Two years ago, **Ashnikko** announced a trio of shows at London’s Omeara in support of their ‘Hi, It’s Me’ EP. Over those three nights, they were set to play to just under 1,000 people before the global pandemic put a stop to those plans. Tonight, one mixtape and a handful of singles later, Ashnikko finally gets to play a headline show in her adopted hometown of London.
