Jessica Wilde - Body (Official Video)

Jessica Wilde is proving to be a songwriter of true grit. Able to chart the state of her own self-worth, experience, and growth through her inimitable UK R’n’B style, on new single ‘Body’ Jess is done with hiding, playing nice and getting suckered in time after time by ‘F*ckboys’ and ‘Wasteman’, having to conform to peer pressure and the role a dominant masculine society expects of her.

As Jessica bares testimony on new single ‘Body’, she sweetly tells how a recent partner, “Reeled me in, only to cut me loose”. Her soulful refrain, “If all you want is my body, then imma find somebody, who wants no body but me” will resonate for many women. Wilde further explains, ‘I had this relationship that was a real wake up call. It hit me… why did I keep attracting these guys who only seemed to care how my body could please them? Why don’t I celebrate my body instead of looking to them to validate me? So, I made a vow to myself that I would love ME first, this song is that vow!’.
