Is it getting hot in here or is it just FKJ? The French artist has been quickly gaining traction since his debut album French Kiwi Juice released a couple years back, and it seems as though the sky’s the limit. Last month, FKJ took his innovative neo-soul sounds to Salar De Uyuni for a live Facebook DJ set from Bolivia’s largest salt flat. Infinite blue skies and water surrounded just enough platform for FKJ to work his sonic magic to perfectly complete the posh, laid back, private island vibe. Just in case that wasn’t enough to satiate fans old and new, FKJ just released a single called “Leave My Home” that will certainly please.
Oozing with romance and sleek production, FKJ constructs a track that will entice with its breezy atmosphere, sunny guitar melodies, and pixelated vocals. Despite first impressions of the title, “Leave My Home,” the result is more of a come hither vibe that could put butterflies in your stomach. It’s a prime example of his innovative style which pulls influence from a variety of genres including R&B, jazz, dance, pop, and rock. Let’s just steal a line from FKJ, “I'm on my knees.”
“Leave My Home” is out now via Mom+Pop, available to stream or download. Also, don’t miss FKJ on his North American tour starting next month in Vancouver. Check out the dates below.
