Grammy-winning producer JAE5 has enlisted Nigerian rising star Lojay and Cameroonian-American breakout songstress Libianca for his latest offering, dubbed “I Wish.”
“I Wish” is a poignant yet captivating track that reflects the longing to have cherished and the desire for a second chance. Kicking off with JAE5’s spellbinding signature Afrobeats-infused production, Lojay’s effortlessly soothing vocals immediately draw listeners into a world of bliss.
Taking over the second verse, Libianca complements the Nigerian star with her truly mesmerizing voice floating over the laid-back beat before both artists join the chorus in conjunction.
With the new release, JAE5 has once again proved his ability to create timeless hits and claim his status as one of the UK’s most coveted producers.
