Rising Hackney-born rapper, producer and poet John Glacier released her full-length debut, last year’s critically applauded Like A Ribbon. Like A Ribbon featured a seamless blend of rap, electronic music, post-punk, ambient textures and experimental songwriting, showcasing the rising Hackney-born artist’s uniquely diaristic, stream-of-consciousness approach while quickly establishing her as an artist operating within her own lane.
The success of Glacier’s debut has also helped to catapult her into a new stratosphere within music and elsewhere. Since her debut’s release, she made her debut in British Vogue, appeared on the cover of Hypebeast and starred in Prada‘s Spring/Summer 2026 global campaign alongside Hunter Schafer, Damson Idris, Carey Mulligan, Nicholas Hoult and the cover of HommeGirls. Her reputation as a fashionista has been further cemented with collaborations and appearances with leading houses — including Burberry, Alexander McQueen, Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu, Lacoste, Gucci, Bogetta Veneta, JW Anderson and Fendi.
Musically, she has collaborated with a growing and eclectic list of artists across different genres, including Blondshell, MJ Cole, Montell Fish and dj gummy bear, Jadasea and Jamie xx.
The rising multidisciplinary talent is building upon a rapidly growing profile with the Take A Daytrip co-produced “Bond Girl,” the first bit of new material since last year’s Like A Ribbon. Bult with a breezy yet propulsive pulse and tweeter and woofer rattling low end paired with dense layers of twinkling and oscillating synth melodies beneath Glacier’s coolly swaggering delivery, “Bond Girl” is a hypnotic, club friendly banger that channels Ibiza with a pop-leaning accessibility. “Bond Girl” to me captures a bold, rising artist, who’s about to put the game in a chokehold — and in her own terms.
Directed by Léa Ceheivi, the accompanying video for “Bond Girl” is fittingly inspired by classic spy thrillers and stars the rising Hackney-born artist as a stylish and enigmatic secret agent, who’s both a heroine and a villain. Effortlessly maneuvering through a world of intrigue and excess, she continually find sways to evade, outsmart and triumph over rivals and others attempting to take what’s hers.
