U.K. vocalist Rachel Foxx debuts “Mistress,” the R&B mood booster you need
Listen to the hopeful first single from Foxx’s new EP Flame
"Touch me, tease me, tell me that you need me," is the flirtatious hook on British artist Rachel Foxx's glistening new single, "Mistress." A team-up with the masked London MC Don-E, the song sees Foxx channel her love of Toni Braxton and Aaliyah into a tactile and upbeat R&B that mixes a sense of lust and caution over a slinky electronic beat.
"Mistress" is the first song to be taken from the east London-based singer this year and precedes an EP, titled Flame, due later in 2018.
Speaking to The FADER about the song, Foxx said via email: “I wrote 'Mistress' for females, it’s about feeling confident, sexy, and fun. A lot of my previous songs are about heartbreak and love so I wanted to switch it up for a second. 'Mistress' was really fun to write and make, and then Don-E came and added his flavor and the rest was history.”
