Nadia Vaeh, released her newest single "X-Mas Nightmares" on December 08, 2023. The song is festive, joyful, and atypical making it a must-listen for fans of alternative and edgy holiday music. The song tells the story of a woman who confronts a Santa who’s been rather inappropriate towards her. Using Christmas imagery to convey her message, the single stands up against the patriarchy. The song conveys a strong message about standing up for oneself and not tolerating mistreatment. The visuals complement the theme, with Vaeh portrayed wielding a bat, standing over a defeated and beaten Santa.
