Jorja Smith has released her new track “Alive” featuring Wizkid, from her upcoming album.
It’s a big moment for modern R&B and Afrobeats coming together, as Jorja Smith links up with Wizkid.
This track is the perfect blend of British soul with African rhythm and is a clear example of how music has become a global phenomenon.
Jorja Smith’s lyricism on this single is sympathetic. She explores themes of survival, inner strength, and the search for authenticity in a world that frequently feels too much.
Wizkid’s appearance lends a new flavor to the song, bringing his own dose of Afrobeats swagger and melodic sensibilities.
His verse is slick, effortlessly cool, providing a counterpoint to Smith’s melancholy.
Jorja Smith and Wizkid have undeniable chemistry. They blend their voices together beautifully. They give each other space.
P2J’s superb production, blending R&B, soul and Afrobeats together, makes the feeling of collaboration even stronger.
Ultimately, Jorja Smith’s song “Alive” was omitted from her forthcoming 12-track project “What Are The Odds,” out in August.
