Mysie Drops ‘CONTROLLA’ Mixtape

MYSIE will open for IAMDBB on tour in Europe this October

It’s been a long time coming, but South London’s Mysie has finally shared her debut mixtape.

‘CONTROLLA’ is a dance-oriented but genre-defying piece of work that captures the essence of the many sounds that surrounded her growing up in the capital. 

“I want people to pre-drink to this. I want them to party to this. And I want them to put it on whenever they want to feel uplifted or empowered” , Mysie says. 

It’s a long way from the indie soul that the Ivor Novello winning artist used to create. 

Aptly titled, the mixtape was co-produced by Mysie, with each collaborator hand-selected by her too. Fast-rising rapper £MONZO and alt-indie artist SOXX join Mysie on tracks, along other emerging artists, Carter Ace and honey. 

“This was my time to follow my natural creative instinct and that has always been dance, electronic, house music. Music that makes you dance and feel something inside. Music that creates a moment” says Mysie of ‘CONTROLLA’. “I am not one-dimensional. I don't think any musician is one dimensional”.

Following a London show opening for IAMDBB last week, Mysie will support her European tour.

‘CONTROLLA’ is out now via ONErpm.
