British award-winning, platinum-selling artist Mabel returns today with a brand-new single and music video for “Look At My Body Pt. II” featuring Shygirl, out now via Capitol Records. The official music video made its global broadcast premiere on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop and across MTV’s global network of channels, as well as on the Paramount Times Square billboards.
Joining forces with London’s queen of sexual reclamation and perfect partner-in-crime; Shygirl, “Look At My Body Pt. II” is an unrepentant ode to owning your sexuality and womanhood. The accompanying video directed by David Wilson, sees Mabel and Shygirl unpick the male gaze, flipping well-known cultural moments dating back to Eve and the Forbidden Fruit. Produced by MXM and Wolf Cousins, the powerful single marks a new era for Mabel which sees her at her most authentic and unapologetic.
Speaking about the single and video Mabel reveals, “This record is about questioning the male gaze and the power of the divine feminine. I’ve often felt judged by my appearance, and I’ve let comments get the better of me. Now, I’m at a stage in my life though where I’m celebrating my body without letting it define me. I wanted to let anyone who’s ever underestimated me or judged the book by its cover know that I’m ok with them doing that now because I know who I am.
Collaborating with Shygirl is something I’ve wanted to do for a really long time as I’m a big fan of her music and everything fell into place with this record. She totally understood everything I wanted it to be and she’s made the song so special. She’s a superstar.”
About their collaboration, Shygirl also adds: “Had such a cute time working with Mabel on this one – an easy and natural fit, just love hanging out with her. A song for those who love watching.”
“Look At My Body Pt. II” follows last month’s sultry R&B cut “Vitamins“, produced by Tommy Brown (Ariana Grande, Victoria Monet), and marks a brand new era for one of the UK’s brightest pop stars.
