MABEL scrapped an entire album before making her new self-titled mixtape – after being “crippled” by the expectations.
The singer, whose previous album About Last Night came out in 2022, said she felt pressure to live up to her debut, High Expectations.
Mabel scrapped an entire album before making her new self-titled mixtapeIt won her a Brit Award for British Female Solo Artist.
Mabel said on TikTok: “I did scrap an album.
“I kept waiting for this moment like, ‘Now’s the time to put out an album’, but inevitably you change, you grow, and the music you made last year or the year before, you’ve kind of outgrown it.”
She added: “People expect you to do certain things and get certain accolades again like it’s easy.
“But that has been crippling, mentally and creatively, for me for years.”

SAM IN THE KIT PARADE

My source said: “As well as the Adidas ad tying in to Sam’s massive People Watching tour which kicks off in London on Friday, it will be used to launch Newcastle’s new third kit.
“He arrived at 3pm and filmed for five hours with loads of extras. Sam was decked out head to toe in Adidas and played his guitar. He was on top form and everyone who met him said he was absolutely lovely.
“It was a long shoot but everyone who took part got to take home a pair of brand new trainers as a treat.
“Sam is really pleased with how the ad looks and so are the big cheeses at Newcastle United.”
Since his debut album Hypersonic Missiles, which went straight to No1 in 2019, Sam has been on the most incredible rise.
I’ve no doubt the journey is going to get even more exciting for Sam in the years to come.
And now he’s got some lovely new clobber to wear while he’s doing it.

NADINE TO TELL ALL IN MEMOIR

She reunited with Cheryl Tweedy, Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh last summer for a successful UK tour after patching up their differences.
Nadine Coyle has risked falling out with her Girls Aloud mates again with a memoir that promises to ‘tell all’But I imagine they might be more than a little worried about what Nadine has written in the book, called Loud: Diary Of A Derry Girl.
It is due to be released in time for Christmas, with details about it leaking online after Amazon put up a pre-order link early, seemingly by accident.
A description said it will be “an intimate tell-all account” of her life.It added: “This is her story, a story full of friendships, a lot of laughs,
some bust-ups and just a whole lot of pop.”
It’s also likely to touch on her close friendship with bandmate Sarah Harding, who died from cancer in 2021, so I’m sure it will be an emotional read.
RADIO 2 In The Park is heading to Chelmsford, Essex, for three days from September 5-7.
The annual music festival will take place in Hylands Park, with tickets going on sale at 8.30am tomorrow.
That will follow the line-up announcement during Scott Mills’ breakfast show this morning.
