Jewel Owusu drops music video of “spark”

Filipino-Ghanian artist Jewel Owusu has dropped the music video for “spark.”

A visual companion set in the haze of a late-night club, the MV follows Jewel Owusu navigating the crowded dance floor, barely keeping up with the frenetic energy and the people around her.

According to Owusu, the video evokes the sensory experience of being in a club but completely alienated from its lively, bustling vibe. “It’s one of those nights where you show up, but you’re not actually having a good time. You’re caught in your own head while everyone else around you is on a completely different wavelength. It feels as if you are moving through space in an alternate reality.

A notable motif woven throughout the music video is the recurring imagery of a mouse—a symbol Owusu has revisited across her work.

“To me, it symbolizes feeling small, finding ways to survive, and moving quietly through spaces—themes that often reflect my experiences,” shares the Australian-based electro-pop newcomer. “Lately, people have even been saying that mouse girl winter is in full swing, which I love because it shows that the idea has grown beyond me and taken on a life of its own.”

With “spark,” Jewel Owusu continues to carve out a distinct voice in contemporary electro-pop, one that thrives on vulnerability and refusal to conform to expectation.

“spark” will be part of Jewel Owusu’s upcoming new EP, set to be released sometime this year. Late last year, she captivated audiences with the propulsive but minimalist track “Time Machine,” which features acclaimed Filipino singer-songwriter and producer ena mori.
