Grimes' response to her big breakup with Elon Musk has been pretty on-brand for the alternative singer who has made a name for herself by marching to the beat of her own drum. Aside from making comments and jokes regarding the status of her relationship with the SpaceX billionaire — such as a cheeky comment to Page Six that she will be "colonizing [one of Jupiter's moons] Europa separately from Elon for the lesbian space commune" — she also appears to be throwing herself into her music in order to deal with the big life change.

On September 30, 2021, Grimes took to Instagram to post a short music video, of sorts, releasing a new song of hers. In the video's caption, she revealed that the song is called "Love," and she wrote, "I wrote and produced this song this week in response to all the privacy invasion, bad press, online hate and harassment by paparazzis I've experienced this week," per Pitchfork. The music video is quite a low quality one, most likely filmed exclusively on her phone. It focuses on her dramatic makeup, her intensely long nails, and her emotion in her face.
