Paris WYA Releases New Song “Hate You More”
New York-based Chinese singer-songwriter Paris WYA released the third single called “Hate You More” from her upcoming third EP “MANNEQUIN” on February 13, 2026.
The song captures the raw, complicated space between heartbreak and healing.
Initially a melancholic ballad, the song was iterated and tweaked by her team before eventually shifting toward a vibrant, dynamic pop sound.
It was written by Jessica Caroline Meng, Zac Poor, Ameerah Astrid Roelants, and Morgan Taylor Reid, who also produced the track.
The accompanying music video was directed by HaBei.
Paris WYA said of the song, “Despite the title, it’s ironically still a love song. The full line that includes the title is actually ‘wish I could hate you more.’ A lot of us think that when we love hard and get hurt, the only way to move on is through hating the other person. But a big part of growing up for me was realizing that we don’t have to hate the people who hurt us. We can still hold space and be grateful for everything they taught us. That stage of grief, somewhere between anger and acceptance, is kind of the cool part. That’s where this song lives.”- The EP is expected to be released in 2026. It is her first project since the 2025 EP “GLITCH”.
With “MANNEQUIN”, she turns toward a more stripped-down, ethereal energy, navigating heartbreak, insecurity, grief, and clarity through songwriting that balances vulnerability with striking imagery. -
