"Mother's Daughter" is a song by American singer Miley Cyrus. It was released on June 7, 2019, by RCA Records, as a track from Cyrus' second extended play She Is Coming (2019) and a promotional single for her upcoming seventh studio album She Is Miley Cyrus (2019).

Composition
"Mother's Daughter" is 3 minutes and 39 seconds long. It was written by Cyrus, Alma Miettinen and its producer Andrew Wyatt.[1] Lyrically, the song was described as a women's empowerment anthem.[2] It focuses on the mother-daughter duo's strong relationship, and references how the singer's mother, Tish Cyrus, told her she'd "make it", singing: "I put my back into it, my heart in it/So I did it, yeah I did it.".[3] Additionally, Cyrus describes herself as "nasty and evil", and explains that she has the freedom to do as she wishes: "Don't fuck with my freedom/I came up to get me some/I'm nasty, I'm evil/Must be something in the water or that I'm my mother's daughter", she sings in the chorus.[2]
Commercial performance
Following the release of She Is Coming, "Mother's Daughter" debuted at number 54 on the US Billboard Hot 100. It is Cyrus' 47th entry on the chart,[4] and her highest debut since "Adore You" entered at number 42 following the release of Bangerz in 2013.[5]
Music video
The official music video was released on July 2, 2019. It features Cyrus wearing a red latex bodysuit against red lighting and aesthetics, and features shots of diverse women, including body positivity women, women of color, disabled women, transgender women, and a non-binary person using they/them pronouns, sitting and posing in different places. Cyrus' real-life mother Tish makes a cameo appearance in the video. The video also shows nude scenes and has feminist signs flashing on-screen at random intervals. The video is presented in 4:3 aspect ratio format.
