Birmingham-born Afro-British artist ROZZZQWEEN has released her new single ‘Praise Me’. She has become one of the UK’s most talked-about independent artists through her distinctive voice and her ability to move between soulful intimacy, alternative R&B textures and infectious hooks. Support from BBC Introducing, Radio 1’s Jess Iszatt and Billboard has helped build a loyal fanbase, while a recent collaboration led Maverick Sabre to call her “one of my favourite voices right now“. Named a BBC Introducing One To Watch for 2026, her fearless songwriting stands out for its unfiltered approach to the spaces between confidence and vulnerability.
‘Praise Me’ weaves together alternative R&B, soul, and razor-sharp storytelling to explore the tug-of-war when you know someone is wrong for you, yet a part of you aches for them to stay. The song plunges into the kind of relationship most people hesitate to confess: where you recognize you deserve more, but love keeps you tethered. Instead of a typical breakup anthem, it captures the charged moment before the split, when logic and emotion wrestle and neither side prevails. The track zeroes in on emotional imbalance, the ache of giving more than you get, and how affection can make us endure what we know we should leave behind. ROZZZQWEEN’s unmistakable voice delivers these truths with power, refusing to tidy up the chaos of craving more from someone while still needing them. As the newest chapter in her monthly single series leading up to an October EP, it deepens the unfolding narrative of real-time growth and experience.
ROZZZQWEEN shared: “Ever been in a relationship with someone who’s just so ungrateful and wrong for you but you’d be damned if they left? This is for the people out there in terrible relationships but feel as though they can’t leave because of that little thing called love.”
