Speaking about the single Mabel revealed: “Chat is a song for the summer. A simple love song because the best kind of love doesn’t have to be complicated. When you find a person that you can say all the things on your mind to, and that all consuming feeling takes over.”
 
Following a return to her R&B roots on ‘Vitamins’ earlier this year, and the release of empowering anthems ‘Look At My Body Pt.II’featuring Shygirl, which Stereogum praised for “questioning the male gaze” and celebrating “the power of the divine feminine,” with PAPER Magazine hailing it as “slinky and sleazy in a deeply appealing way,” and Female Intuition’ - the latter of which, Rolling Stone said in their exclusive conversation with Mabel “captures the star learning to trust her decision-making in life and in her art,” adding that the track is “indicative of the energy she’s tapping into” with her upcoming music. The song was also named ELLE UK’s #1 song of the summer. With these releases and more on the horizon, 2024 is bringing a fresh and exhilarating reintroduction to the BRIT award-winning artist you thought you knew.
 
Earlier this week, Mabel surprised fans at Notting Hill Carnival to perform fan-favourite ‘Finders Keepers’, in addition to new single ‘Chat’. The performance follows several festival slot appearances across Europe this past summer including BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend, Primavera Sound, Open’er festival and more. Mabel also joined forces with rising Ghanaian star Black Sherif for the positive anthem “Zero."
 
Stay tuned for more from Mabel.
