Melanie CÂ has released her brand new single and music video for âBlame It On Me,â another blast of empowering, unapologetic pop from the legendary artist, embracing her life-long love of house music and disco, while continuing her message of self-love and respect.Â
âBlame It On Meâ calls out the toxicity in a relationship, and is the perfect follow-on to her global smash, âWho I Amâ, a track that embraced the power of vulnerability and also (in its affecting video) saw Melanie explore the past, present and future of Sporty Spice. âWho I Am,â received its late night television debut on CBSâ The Late Late Show with James Corden in April [watch HERE], and shot to the Top 10 on iTunes across Europe, South America and in the UK.
Melanie CÂ has been busy under lockdown finishing her forthcoming studio album — further previewed today via âBlame It On Meâ â as well as brining her fans together around the world in a series of quarantined live-streams, featuring Q&As on physical and mental wellbeing, the next generation of Girl Power (see a conversation with Rina Sawayama for Crack Magazine), plus some familiar faces (Melanie B, Richard E. Grant, Sink The Pink cohort Glynn Fussell and frequent-collaborator Biff Stannard).
Â
2020 has seen Melanie C return to the solo pop stage on her own unequivocal terms. A vital voice in the modern discourse on depression, body positivity, and the LGBTQ community, her trailblazing influence has arguably never been more apparent. Whether presenting her friend Billie Eilish with a BRIT Award, being remixed by the esteemed Joe Goddard or discussing her journey thus far on a recent episode of BBCâs Desert Island Discs, Melanie is also hard at work on her most celebrated music in years.Â
Â
With over 100 million records sold and multiple BRIT, Ivor, Billboard and Olivier Awards under her belt, her forthcoming album nonetheless feels like new, more assured ground for Melanie C – and a glorious new chapter for Girl Power.
Â
âBlame It On Meâ is out everywhere now.
