Self Esteem delivers new single 'How Can I Help You'

With her highly-anticipated new album landing in the coming months, Self Esteem has now dropped the next cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'How Can I Help You' comes accompanied by a stunning self-directed video, and follows on from the previously shared tracks 'I Do This All The Time' and the record's title-track in previewing her sophomore LP 'Prioritise Pleasure, which is out on the 22nd October via Fiction Records.

Speaking about the new offering, she said, "‘How Can I Help You’ is one of the first songs I wrote for the second album. After touring the first record and most weeks being told that I am underrated or intimidating I just felt very fed up. I guess I'll be eternally angry for the way as a woman unless you're sweet, nice, settled and quiet, you're considered 'different' and 'difficult'. I wanted to play the drums in the video to reclaim how often I used to feel self conscious playing them. The physical act of a woman playing a drum means your tits move - all I ever wanted to do was play but it always came with this fear of being looked at in that way. Now my tits move for me, my song, my video. I'm also aware it's probs a nice watch if you're that way inclined, but I'm afraid if you wanna watch it you have to hear what I've got to say. Click for the tits, stay for the feminism!"
