Self Esteem is back, and she’s bringing the heat with her latest single, ‘Big Man,’ featuring South African dynamo Moonchild Sanelly. It’s her first new music since the smash hit album Prioritise Pleasure dropped in 2021, and let me tell you, it was worth the wait. The track explores the nitty-gritty of modern masculinity and gender roles, all wrapped up in a catchy-as-hell package.
Straight off the bat, ‘Big Man’ was premiered as the Hottest Record in the World on BBC Radio 1—no small feat! The music video is a visual feast, full of wit and style, with a nod to Queen’s iconic ‘I Want To Break Free’ video. Directed by Piers Dennis and produced by Ayomide Alli and Precious Mahaga, it sees Self Esteem and Moonchild Sanelly tackling household chores traditionally seen as ‘women’s work’. It’s bold, it’s bright, and it’s brimming with that trademark Self Esteem flair.
