British Pop sensation Jessie Ware made a splash in 2012 with her Mercury Prize nominated debut LP Devotion, she’s now back with the stunning new singleTough Love’, the first track to surface from South-Londoner’s forthcoming album.

‘Tough Love’ was crafted in collaboration with BenZel, a production comprising UK bass music pioneer Two Inch Punch and super-producer Benny Blanco (Rihanna, Katy Perry).

“I had just finished a run of shows in the States and went to NY to work with BenZel for a couple weeks, mainly as a different focus to touring. I didn’t have any expectations or pressures with what would come out of those two weeks, and think ‘Tough Love’ sums this up.” Explains Ware, “It was me experimenting with my voice and having fun with it. It just felt right and kind of dictated the route of the next album, much like ‘Devotion’ did on my first album.”

Check out the stunning clip to ‘Tough Love’,  we can’t wait to hear more from this incredibly talented singer-songwriter.
