Mura Masa – I’m Really Hot (For Myself)

Mura Masa returns with “I’m Really Hot (For Myself)”, a boisterous dance track that samples Missy Elliott’s 2003 song of a similar name. The British producer delivers industrial-influenced production over a four-on-the-floor beat that’s built for movement.

Alex Crossan (Mura Masa) has been relatively quiet since his last major releases, making this new single feel like a welcome return to form. The track’s aggressive energy and club-ready structure show him leaning into harder dance music territory, with the Missy Elliott sample providing a familiar hook that bridges hip-hop and electronic music.

The Reids-directed music video features choreography that matches the song’s kinetic energy, continuing the visual tradition of the original Missy Elliott track it references. It’s a smart move that acknowledges the source while creating something new.

After exploring various sounds across his previous albums, Mura Masa seems focused on pure dancefloor functionality here. The industrial elements add grit to what could have been a straightforward house track, creating something that works in both club and festival settings.
