Too often, love is framed as soft and innocent, but it can also be bold, magnetic, and intensely
intentional. That’s the kind of love Anabel Rose explores on her new single "How I Want It."
Following an eventful 2024, which saw the release of her debut project "Something About A
Rose", Ghanaian-Filipino alt-pop artist Anabel Rose, opens 2025 with a confident new chapter.
With fans eager to see what’s next, Anabel shows she’s fully stepping into her power.
Produced by Insane Auggie, "How I Want It" is a sultry yet vibrant alt-R&B track — a mid-
tempo bounce that rides the line between flirtation and full-blown intention. Gone is the
hesitant yearning of “Lungs.” In its place: velvety vocals, clarity, and a bold declaration of
desire.
“Hardly breathing. You’re on my mind, boy lately,” she opens, revealing a lover who craves
connection but also refuses to chase. I want to know how bad you want it… Is it bad how I want it?”
She asks — not from a place of doubt, but assurance. This is not a game of guessing; it’s a call
for emotional transparency.
As the track unfolds, Anabel leans into the daring, addictive nature of intimacy. Lines like “My
chocolate… You’re so sweet to me… I need a fix… No counterfeit… I’ll never quit,” and “Dive in
my river… Let it rain when I’m tingling… Steady the rhythm… Locking eyes” reflects a love that’s consuming and immersive. The fading echoes of “so addictive” say it all.
"How I Want It" is Anabel Rose at her most intimate yet. Her ability to unpack the complexities of
love with vulnerability and confidence showcases the richness of her artistry and songwriting.
