Song of the Day: Come Over – Zernell Fontaine (ft RV)

At 22 years old ZERNELL FONTAINE has a musical CV to be impressed by, thanks to his consistently dope R&B drops and his early entry into the music game. Eager to experiment with his sound he is on an unabating journey of musical discovery, meaning we’ve only just scratched the surface of this exciting upcoming talent.

Collaborating with North London rap sensation RV for latest release ‘Come Over’, released by 2ToneRecords/Warner, Zernell Fontaine delivers refreshing R&B alongside all of the elements that make the British Black Music scene so impressive right now. Stepping straight on to the beat creating an instant vibe of a hook before making way for a first weighty verse from RV, the record is dominated in all the right ways by Zernell who balances his melodic ad-libs and backing vocals with RV’s verses, making this the perfect cuffing season anthem.

Working with some of the worlds most renowned R&B hitmakers including Rodney Jerkins, Brian Michael Cox, Harmony (H-Money) Samuels, Angel, Sean Garrett, PRGRSHN (WSTRN) and more, Zernell made his first steps to his professional career at 13 years old, forming a strong foundation which now allows him to flourish artistically. His previous work and collaborations with the likes of Sneakbo pays further homage to his talents, not only vocally but visually too, as his inspirations from R&B legends such as Chris Brown, Usher and Michael Jackson spill into his mesmerising dance filled performances.

The British-Slovene artist has also announced that she’ll be supporting GIRLI at her ‘Don’t call me a Ho Ho Ho Xmas Extravaganza’ at The Post Bar, London, this Sunday (15th December).

Speaking on the release, July says: “The single is about waking up from a one-night-stand and constantly thinking about the person you were with the night before. This is exactly what happened to my boyfriend and I, I became obsessed with fantasying about him to the point I couldn’t switch it (my mind) off.”

As a champion of all things LGBTQ+ and a fiercely independent artist with a rebellious streak, July aims to empower young women through her music and has talked openly about mental health issues in the past. Her previous single ‘Liar Liar’ saw tastemaker support from the likes of Notion, Gay Times & Hunger Magazine. July will also appear in the forthcoming Noctis Magaazine print edition.

With previous support shows for the likes of Shakka, Professor Green & Rita Ora – not forgetting performances at The Great Escape, Leeds, London, Manchester & Helsinki Pride – July Jones continues to step into her own space as a songwriter, singer, style influencer and sought after live performer.

Stay tuned for the official video for ‘Switch It Off’.

Natz Drops Brand New Single, ‘How You Make A Girl Feel’

Hailing from Wolverhampton Natalie Stewart – aka NATZ – is one of those singers/songwriters who has a knack for connecting with the prospective listener based on her life experiences.

Possessing a vibrant R&B vibe, her new single, ‘How You Make A Girl Feel’ displays one of her experiences; it paints a raw picture of the female perspective in a relationship, letting the male counterpart know that she’s in it for the long-haul and that she’s not messing around. Through the frank perspective, The UK newcomer carries warmth in her vocals performance.

Fairly new to the UK R&B scene, NATZ has quickly carved out a name for herself with tracks, ‘Getting Paid’ and ‘TICK TOCK’. Earlier this year, NATZ teamed up with DJ Corrupt for her biggest single to date, ‘It’s Not Okay’, which has generated over 320,000 streams on Spotify alone.

‘How You Make A Girl Feel’ is out now on all major download/streaming sites including iTunes.
