Aya Nakamura’s “Comportement” is a pulse-pounding celebration of confidence, swagger, and living life on your own terms. Over a contagious Afrobeats-tinged rhythm, the French-Malian star repeats bah ouais (“yeah, that’s right”) like a motto, brushing off judgmental looks in the VIP section and flaunting stuffed pockets of cash. The song paints a vivid scene of a wild night out: chest-puffed guys, hypnotic dancing, glittering luxury, and Aya unapologetically controlling the vibe. Her message is clear—she owns her behavior, and no one is going to “gérer” (manage) her unless she decides so.
Beneath the party glow, “Comportement” carries a note of empowerment. Aya warns against pointless drama, reminding listeners that “tous ceux qu’auront ramé, à la fin auront gagné” (“everyone who keeps rowing will win in the end”). Instead of getting angry or stumbling home, she chooses to set problems aside, revel in success, and keep moving forward. It’s an anthem for anyone who knows their worth, loves their attitude, and won’t let anyone dim their shine—bah ouais!
