Fresh from her triumphant night at the BRIT Awards winning ‘Pop Act,’ global music superstar JADE returns with the mighty “FUFN (Fuck You For Now).” Watch the video here.
Written by JADE with music icon RAYE, Dave Hamelin, and co-produced by Lostboy, “FUFN (Fuck You For Now)” is an electrifying and dramatic pop song packed with attitude. Bursting with raw emotion, JADE sings “Don’t you tell me to calm down” on the song’s explosive chorus.
The song was teased during the new Fendi campaign for their Mamma Baguette bag, which JADE stars in.
JADE shares, “FUFN is the escalation of an argument we’ve all had, knowing it’s not the end but feeling all the anger in the moment. It’s the channeling of female rage into a badass big pop banger.”

JADE delivered the stand-out performance of the night at this year’s BRIT Awards, performing her superhit “Angel Of My Dreams.” The performance video has been viewed over 1 million times and Jade also scooped up her first solo BRIT award in the ‘Pop Act’ category.
The Guardian called JADE’s performance, “an episodic live performance so peculiar it stole the show,” whilst NME said it was “a staggering, theatrical performance.” Clash Magazine named it one of the greatest BRITS performances of all time.
JADE finished 2024 by winning the Trailblazer Award at The Rolling Stone UK Awards and appearing on the cover of the magazine. She was also included on many of the end of year ‘Best Of” lists.
“Angel Of My Dreams” was named the No.1 song of 2024 by DIY Magazine and a Top 10 song by The Guardian, DORK, Clash and NME. In addition, Dazed named JADE’s “Angel Of My Dreams,” video of the year.
“Angel Of My Dreams” has been a huge commercial success. The track has accumulated over 100 million streams to date, entering the UK Official Singles Chart at No. 7, the third highest new entry for a British artist this year. The accompanying video was a No. 1 YouTube trending video for 10 days and has had 12 million views. The song remained in the Official UK Singles Chart Top 20 for two months.
Since then, JADE has dropped three more tracks, ‘Midnight Cowboy,” a sultry, understated bass heavy bop about owning your sexuality, the sleek disco-tinged
Fantasy,” complete with a video directed by the iconic David LaChapelle and the bold anthem ‘IT girl’.
