North London's pride and joy Jazmin Bean delivers their sweet revenge with the release of their latest single, "You Know What You've Done." The track is an unrelenting statement of independence that demands a significant other finally take responsibility for their actions.
Opening with beautiful, sweeping, synth-tinged strings, understated percussion, and warm guitar riffs, Bean's rich vocals and emotional delivery immediately grab your attention, investing you in the lore of a romance gone wrong. The song's lyrics see the rising star wishing the worst on an ex who mistreated them while still not wanting to waste their life eternally angry and seeking revenge. Instead, Bean hopes their guilt will consume them, and the payback will "take its course without lifting a finger." "This song is about feeling remorseful, revengeful and getting payback on a lover who didn't take accountability," shares Jazmin about the track.
The accompanying music video, co-directed by Zak Watson and Jazmin Bean, is a whimsical yet vibrant visual that sees Bean accompanied by their bandmates in a surrealistic indoor field of flowers. Armed with a flower microphone, Bean and Co. give an impassioned performance as it begins to rain inside, serving as a metaphor for the healing and growth that comes after even the worst storms.
The single is the latest of a series of singles that Bean has released, including their last three singles, "Piggie," "Favourite Toy," and "Terrified," which have been streamed over 8.7 million times to date, in preparation for their upcoming debut album Traumatic Livelihood, out February 23. The North London talent has spent the last few months on a sold-out global tour, where they played to thousands of devoted fans. 2024 looks set to be another mammoth year for Bean as they continue to emerge as one of the most influential young artists over the past few years.
