This past week, all eyes have remained on Lola Brooke as she continues to make her presence heard and felt by all. Now, she releases the official music video to ‘Shelter Baby (Be That Bitch)’ from her debut project Dennis Daughter. ‘Shelter Baby’ is a central piece of Lola’s project, Dennis Daughter. Produced by Reefa Music, the haunting and action-packed beat accompanies Lola’s story as she speaks about the significance the shelter system has on her life. The contrast between the club-banging beat and commendable, storytelling lyrics emphasizes Lola’s transparency in a fashion that strays away from the need of sympathy from the masses. Rather, ‘Shelter Baby’ celebrates the Lola Brooke coming-of-age story. The Ben-Marc-directed video shows Lola in a head-turning Jean Paul Gaultier ensemble as she flaunts the essence of how she’s always felt to “be that bitch” from day one. [via Broadway World]

Aotearoa/New Zealand’s JessB returns with her new single ‘Talk Of The Town’, alongside the announcement that she will release her debut album Feels Like Home on July 5. ‘Talk Of The Town’ is a chilled, laid back track with a funky R&B-rap soundscape with lyrics that explore not caring what other people think of you, and the freedom that brings. “I was inspired by the feeling of speculation and gossip around ‘who is dating who’,” JessB says. “The song speaks to the feeling directly, while still reinforcing the idea that I always follow what’s best for me regardless of what other people think. Let them talk!” [via Women In Pop]

Cristale has shared new single ‘Will You Ever?’. Out now, it spins her sound in a more introspective fashion, the quiet paranoia of the production matched by some of Cristale’s most open, emotive vocals to date. Daring to open herself up, ‘Will You Ever?’ is a brave return, challenging expectations in the process. Out now on Black Butter Records, the track underpins the sheer depth of this raw Brixton talent. [via Clash]
