Hilary Duff has officially returned with her new single “Mature,” which was released Thursday night and marks her first piece of new music in a decade.
Duff teased “Mature” hours before its release with a short clip from the song’s music video on Instagram.
“8PM EST. Be there,” she captioned the clip alongside the cocktail, sparkle and cherry emojis.
“Mature” features raunchy lyrics not previously heard in the Disney Channel alum’s earlier songs.
“She’s me, I’m her in a different font / Just a few years younger, a new haircut / Very Leo of you with your Scorpio touch / Now, now,” she sings in the first verse. “Going down on her on your vintage rug / Bet she’s so impressed by your Basquiat / And she thinks you’re deep in the ways you’re not / Now, now.”
“She looks / Like all of your girls but blonder / A little like me, just younger / Bet she loves when she hears you say / ‘You’re so mature for your agе, babe‘,” she continued in the chorus. “She looks / Like shе could be your daughter / Like me before I got smarter / When I was flattered to hear you say / ‘You’re so mature for your age, babe,’ oh.”
Duff opened up about her long-awaited return during an interview with Jake Shane for his “Therapuss” podcast Wednesday.
“It was always going to happen,” she said. “There’s no way that that was not going to be a part of my story.”
After 10 years away from music, and after reflecting on her life at 38 years old, Duff said that she was “ready to fill in the blanks and share with people and connect with them on the level of now.”
“Obviously, it’s taken a lot of twists and turns and ups and downs and all of those things, but I have this crazy connection with fans that I’ve known since I was nine, 10 years old, and I just want to connect with them again,” she explained.
“We have gone through a lot of the same things – whether that’s complicated relationships, anxiety, raising kids, divorces, trying to find yourself in adulthood, family drama,” she added.
