The captivating new single serves as the perfect motto for women\u2019s empowerment as Spice uses her influence as an artist to tackle the issues of domestic violence and toxicity in relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00a0The track is accompanied by a music video directed by Lagikz Supreme, featuring Spice struggling to fight for a cheating man while realizing her self worth, only to leave the toxic ex behind.\u00a0 “This song is important for me as it creates an important conversation surrounding how women should value themselves and not settle for less,\u201d says Spice, the Queen of Dancehall. I wanted to remind women that it\u2019s OK to have an Ex Boyfriend if their current relationship has red flags and that includes domestic and emotional abuse. Throughout my 25 years in music, advocating liberation and strength to women has been crucial for me. The topic surrounding domestic and emotional abuse in a relationship is a tough conversation that no one wants to have. I\u2019ve been caught in domestic violence situations before, and walked away without hesitation. I need women to sing this song with ease, knowing with that same intention that it\u2019s that easy to walk away and move on from toxic relationships. I\u2019ve been seeing more images shared across the news and social media of more examples of women being subject and succumbed to domestic violence, and it is a concerning topic. I want viewers and my besties to watch this video and understand the realities of what at times transpires between certain couples, and that they don\u2019t have to tolerate violence in relationships. I want to be the voice for empowering women to leave toxic relationships.\u201d Spice is set to release her introspective new album, \u2018Mirror 25,\u2019 on Friday, August 9, 2024 through her label, Spice Official Entertainment with distribution through Empire.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
