"Ring Ring" is a song by English DJ Jax Jones featuring Mabel and Rich the Kid. It was released as a single on 22 June 2018, and was later included on Jones' EP Snacks. It reached number 12 on the UK Singles Chart and was certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry in August 2018. It is the sixth single from Mabel's mixtape Ivy to Roses (2019), and was also included as a digital and streaming bonus track on Mabel's debut studio album, High Expectations.
Kat Bein of Billboard called the track a "summer song with dance-pop appeal and island rhythm",[1] and said the track has "a certain richness to it, a sensual depth to counterbalance the catchy pop hook, a definite groove to get things heated as the sun goes down".[1]
The music video opens with a mock commercial for the late-night hotline "0-800-RING-RING", and features Mabel as a worker at a call centre, as well as shots of Jax Jones and Mabel dancing in hallways with light displays behind them; Rich the Kid does not appear.[2] Billboard compared its "vibes" to those of late 1990s and 2000s videos, calling it a "throwback", and acclaimed Jax Jones' and Mabel's outfits.[2]
