Jai’Len Josey Unveils New Single “Won’t Force You”
Continuing a gradual rise to the forefront of the culture, Atlanta-based platinum-selling singer-songwriter, musician, and Broadway star Jai’Len Josey shares a brand new single entitled “Won’t Force You” out now via Def Jam Recordings.
Increasing the excitement all-around, it paves the way for the release of her anxiously awaited full-length debut album, Serial Romantic—which saw her team up with five-time GRAMMY® Award-winner Tricky Stewart as Executive Producer.
“Won’t Force You” revolves around softly strummed acoustic guitar and sparse production. Against this backdrop, Jai’Len’s voice immediately resonates. As always, she wears her heart on her sleeve, wrestling with unrequited love. The drums pick up steam, and she reaches a moment of acceptance on the refrain. Between strains of a guitar solo and strings, she reminds, “If you don’t want to be here, I won’t force you to love me.”
At the same time, her recent single “Freak” continues its buzz, Rolling Out professed, “The track is sultry, bold, and unapologetic, pushing her voice and personality to the forefront.” ThisisRnB applauded, “With its cheeky double entendre and flirty chorus, the single showcases yet another bold side of this rising talent.”
Last Thursday, Jai’Len ignited the stage with a showstopping set during the Ones To Watch x ONE Musicfest at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. She capped off the weekend on Sunday with a performance for Toyota x ONE Musicfest. With more performances on the rise, Jai’Len is set to join Xavier Omär on tour for his Hunnymoon Tour with select dates below.
