Mahalia unveils new single 'Letter To Ur Ex'

Following on from her recently shared efforts ‘Whenever You’re Ready’ and and AJ Tracey collaboration ‘Roadside’ last year, Mahalia has now returned to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Letter To Ur Ex' marks her first piece of new material so far this year, and comes accompanied a stunning new video, co-directed and shot by Mahalia and British director Oliver Kane.

Speaking about the new offering, she said, “I wrote ‘Letter to ur ex’ the morning after me and my guy had had a really bad argument due to a text that had been sent by his ex partner the night before. I think when everybody begins a new relationship, it’s vital that it feels like a fresh start. Like everything before doesn’t really matter and the next journey begins now with only the two of you. I realised through this experience that isn’t always the case. But, really, I just wanted to tell her how her actions were making me feel. How her gain in closure was my loss in love. And though I am also a woman who has felt all of those feelings before, I wanted to ask her to let him go so that I could hold him close. To close their old door so that I could open our new one.”

While adding about the new video, "Last night, you sent a text to him. Made us have a fight, made a mess of it. I know you’re his ex but you can’t do that anymore, close the door for me.”
