BombayMami drops Anglo-French single ‘Jaloux’ with sultry R&B edge

MUMBAI: BombayMami, the Swiss singer-songwriter known for her genre-blending style, has released her latest single, Jaloux, an Anglo-French R&B track delivered via MRNK on Friday. The guitar-led song drapes a dreamy, atmospheric production around a sharp warning: “If you play with me, you dance with the devil” as she calls time on a feckless lover.

The artist says the track is a playful reminder not to be taken for granted. “Sometimes when you’re with someone, they start taking you for granted and you’ve got to make them a little jaloux. It’s giving confidence, softness et un peu du feu,” she said.

Jaloux follows her strongest day-one performance yet with Curse, and arrives on the heels of her viral Fire in Delhi snowboarding campaign, which amassed over 10 million views and drew praise from Maya Jama, Sid Sriram, Biig Piig and Kojey Radical. The video also caught the eye of BBC Introducing, BBC Asian Network, Vogue, Elle India and Trippin World.

With a creative vision that refuses to stay in one lane, and more releases lined up, BombayMami’s ascent looks set to continue.
