London-based producer and songwriter MAY showed shedloads of promise when she released 'LUCKY' via in-the-know label Slow Dance back in 2021, appearing alongside Minor Conflict, Teeth Machine and other now flourishing artists. Dialling up the intensity, 'PHONE ME' feels like an arrival, accompanied by a menacing video that juxtaposes the sweeter sides of MAY's innovative pop sound as she glamorously wields a baseball bat. Channeling Hollaback Girl-era Gwen Stefani, military beats march rigidly beneath MAY's assertive vocal before giving way to a breezy piano bridge and back again. Weaving seamlessly between each memorable section, 'PHONE ME' is an accomplished and appropriately threatening taste of things to come from MAY. -Holly Mullineaux
