Sky Ferreira has shared a new song, “Leash.” It is taken from the soundtrack to the forthcoming film Babygirl, which stars Nicole Kidman and will be released on Christmas Day by A24. It is also Ferreira’s first new song in two years and her first song since being dropped by Capitol Records. Listen to it below.

Ferreira co-wrote the song with frequent collaborator Jorge Elbrecht. It follows another song the pair produced together, 2022’s “Don’t Forget,” which at the time was her first single in three years. In 2019, Ferreira shared the single “Downhill Lullaby,” which was one of our Songs of the Week.

Her acclaimed debut album, Night Time, My Time, was released in 2013. Since then, she has long promised the release of her second album, Masochism, but issues with her former label seem to have contributed to its delayed release. The album’s title was announced way back in 2015, but a press release says the album is “now set for launch, marking a significant return for the artist.”

Halina Reijn wrote and directed Babygirl, which, along with Kidman, also stars Harris Dickinson, Sophie Wilde, and Antonio Banderas. According to the press release, “the film tells the tale of a high-powered CEO who puts her career and family on the line when she begins a torrid affair with her much younger intern.” “Leash” is said to be featured prominently in the film.
