Beabadoobee’s ‘Care’ 20-year-old beabadoobee is one of the breakout stars of 2020 thanks to “Coffee,” a stripped-back ditty Powfu transformed into “death bed (coffee for your head).” The viral success of that song raised the singer/songwriter’s profile and she built on that momentum with “Care” — the lead single from her much-anticipated debut album.
