Self Esteem A Complicated Woman

As Self Esteem, Rebecca Taylor has become the unapologetic pop star she always wanted to be. With her 2019 statement debut Compliments Please, Taylor gave voice to the feelings of insecurity and misogyny-induced frustration that many of us face every day, emboldening a whole new audience with powerful, truth-telling lyricism. Her second album, Prioritise Pleasure, arrived to universal critical acclaim and a slew of award nominations (Mercury Prize, a BRIT Award for Best New Artist, Sky Arts, NME Awards), crowned both The Guardian and Sunday Times Culture's Album of the Year, with the empowering "I Do This All The Time" also named The Guardian's #1 song of 2021. Praised for its fearless ability to tackle important issues around female autonomy, comparison culture and self-love, its intimate, confessional and witty lyricism and anthemic maximalist pop rhythms, the album was a catalyst for an unprecedented few years for Taylor.
