Shygirl will end September with the release of her debut LP, Nymph, on the 30th. And today, the multi-talented South London artist has kicked the month off by the premiering the forthcoming records fourth single, “Nike,” via COLORS. The track features an instrumental from Mura Masa and arrives in the wake of Shygirl’s June feature on “hollaback bitch,” from the Guernsey producer’s next record, demon time. “Nike” also follows “Firefly,” “Come For Me,” and “Coochie (A Bedtime Story)” on Nymph‘s release cycle.
The song pits Mura Masa’s stripped-down kick-clap beat against Shygirl’s silky flow as she describes a seamlessly casual encounter. “He tell me ’Nike, just do it’ / Hands on my breast and my body like he knew it,” she raps, swaying lightly in a shimmery silver dress that pairs well with COLORS’ tasteful lilac backdrop. “I tell him lay the pipe, and he blew it / He tell me what he like, nothing to it.”
