British award-winning, platinum-selling artist Mabel has released a brand-new single and visual for Female Intuition, via Capitol Records. At peace with being guided by her own instincts, Mabel’s latest single Female Intuition is a fierce statement by an artist who’s confident, unapologetic, and entirely in tune with her intuition. With its irresistible production and Mabel's signature sultry vocals, Female Intuition continues this exciting new era for one of the UK’s brightest pop stars. This is the female anthem we didn’t know we needed and I couldn’t be happier to see Mabel drop another great single with her amazing vocals, she isn’t stopping any time soon.
The video itself was self-directed by Mabel alongside Simone Beyene, nods to the iconic opening sequence of James Bond’s ‘Goldfinger’ with the song’s powerful lyrics and performances by Neneh Cherry projected onto Mabel’s body. The voices at the end of the visual include her mother Neneh Cherry, cousin Miquita Oliver, as well as other family members and friends. All women who have helped shape her life.
Speaking about the single Mabel shared,
“Female Intuition is about how I’ve learned to trust my instincts. In every aspect of my life. My female intuition is my compass and I’m so grateful for that. This track is also a celebration of all the amazing women in my life who havetaught me to be strong. I dedicate this one to all the mothers, the aunties, and sisters that guide and protect”.
Following a return to her R&B roots on “Vitamins” and the empowering anthem “Look At My Body Pt.II" featuring Shygirl, which Stereogum praised it for “questioning the male gaze” and celebrating “the power of the divine feminine.” While PAPER Magazine hailed it as “slinky and sleazy in a deeply appealing way,” 2024 marks a fresh and exhilarating reintroduction to the BRIT award-winning artistyou thought you knew.
Earlier this year Mabel joined forces with rising Ghanaian star Black Sherif for the positive anthem “Zero" and over the past few weeks, Mabel has graced the stage at numerous festivals including BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend, Primavera Sound, Open’er festival and more. Last month Mabel also turned heads at Paris Fashion Week, attending the likes of Wales Bonner and Acne Studios.
