The new single, ‘Consent’, refers to her experience in the music industry and comes at a time when there is a renewed conversation around consent, especially in entertainment.

Following the allegations of rape, sexual assault, and emotional abuse against comedian Russell Brand, ‘Consent’ sparks conversations and encourages self-reflection, challenging societal norms and shedding light on the importance of consent in all aspects of life.

In an era where consent has become an essential topic of discussion, Saphron and Bekah have joined forces to create an empowering anthem that encourages listeners to reflect on their perceptions of consent and take control of their own narratives.

Saphron explains: "The release of our track comes at a time when the issue of consent is front and centre but even without recent allegations coming to light, this is a hugely important topic. Having worked in the music industry for over a decade, I’ve spoken to many other artists about consent and how boundaries can be crossed.

“Bekah and I wanted to create a song that not only entertained but also sparked important conversations. Consent is something we should all be talking about, and we hope this song encourages people to reflect on their own experiences and beliefs."
