Self Esteem unveils new single ‘Love Second Music First’
It’ll be the B-side of the physical release of her recent Moonchild Sanelly collab, ‘Big Man’.
Following her swaggering return with June’s Moonchild Sanelly collab ‘Big Man’, Self Esteem has now shared a sultry, autotune-tinged new track, ‘Love Second Music First’.
The pair of singles are due for physical release on a 7” picture disc vinyl on 18th October, with this latest cut acting as a B-side to ‘Big Man’ - what was Rebecca Lucy Taylor’s first new music since her acclaimed 2021 sophomore album ‘Prioritise Pleasure’.
Speaking about ‘Love Second Music First’, she has commented: “This is a song I wrote about my long-term lover. Music is a difficult lover. Controlling and toxic. I don’t recommend it. My heart aches but I can’t deny that nobody does it quite like them.”
