Could Mutya turn everything around with the release of 'B‑Boy Baby'?

  • December 5, 2007
  • Popjustice

One can only hope. Mutya's potential as a solo 'artiste' makes the whole project almost com­pletely going off the rails even more of a nuisance.

Here we have the new video by someone who really ought, by this point, to have been quite the little superstar. It is a nice to look at but ulti­mately rather will-this-do video for a last ditch attempt to drum up interest in the 'Real Girl' album: the almost uni­ver­sally dis­ap­proved-of 'B‑Boy Baby'.

Let's hope that having Amy Winehouse on the song helps, although Amy isn't in the video so there is no oppor­tun­ity for The Media to zoom in on her nostrils or whatever it is they do when they're basically attempt­ing to push one of the country's best per­formers to the brink of oblivion with a series of vin­dict­ive and intrusive stories which not only dwell on but also con­trib­ute to her fragile mental state etc etc etc.
