Mahalia Letter To Ur Ex

One of our R’n’B singers to watch, for good reason, has returned with a new single proving why we had her on our Next Generation of R&B list in the first place.

It’s been a minute since we heard from the UK-born signer. Mahalia last dropped off her “Roadside” remix in October of 2021, so this serves as her first official drop of 2022, while fans await a follow-up of some sort to her 2019 album Love & Compromise (although she did treat us to Isolation Tapes during the pandemic).

The new record comes with a music video, which Mahalia directed alongside Oliver Kane. The visual, which you can watch below, perfectly encapsulates a mood. It’s tinged in red light, as Mahalia starts out seemingly unimpressed, lying on a bed, before addressing her lover’s ex who apparently sent him a text and thus trifled with her relationship. As the video continues, Mahalia grabs her jacket and dips before we follow her as she roams the streets late at night, begging this ex to stop the drama. The song is a bit on the short side, with only one verse and the chorus to carry things through. Nonetheless, it’s a strong hook.

Lyrics

[Verse]
Last night, you sent a text to him
Made us have a fight, made a mess of it
I know you’re his ex, but you can’t do that anymore
Close the door for me
And you don’t owe nothing to me
You think you know all about me, huh?
You’ve never been me, but I’ve been you, girl
I’ve had my heart broken, too, girl
Many times before, yeah
I’ve done it all, I’ve seen it all through
I didn’t eat, I didn’t sleep, too
Oh, my God, all my memories
Waitin’ for the right caller ID
So, yeah, I get it
That don’t mean I’m gonna always be forgivin’
There comes a time when you gotta let my love start
And I can only do that when you stop

[Chorus]
With the drama, drama, drama, drama
I don’t wanna sound like a bitch, no, I don’t wanna
If you carry on like this, you gon’ get your karma
Take it from a girl who’s already been through the trauma
Please stop with the textin’, callin’, showin’ up
I think you know what you’re doin’ and it ain’t showin’ love
Stop now, baby, it’s drivin’ me crazy, please
You ain’t got no drama with me, no

[Outro]
Drama, drama, drama, drama
If you carry on like this, you gon’ get your karma
Please stop with the textin’, callin’, showin’ up
I think you know what you’re doin’ and it ain’t showin’ love
Stop now, baby, it’s drivin’ me crazy, please
You ain’t got no drama with me
