Jewel Owusu is a genre-bending singer-songwriter whose multicultural background and upbringing are reflected in her eclectic music style. The half-Filipino and half-Ghanaian artist was born in Hong Kong and raised in New Zealand and Perth and is now based in Melbourne, Australia. Her latest release "b-day" sees her fusing future pop, R&B with contemporary music styles. The production by Aria Wood is bright and soulful and made up of rich guitar plucks, lush synths, and vibrant drum grooves with layered melodies and harmonies to match. The record sees her reflecting on the sombre and nostalgic feeling one gets during their birthdays. Here, she looks back at growing up and the many lessons one can pick up once clarity sets in. In summary, the track details the emotional state of someone who feels stuck in a runt and needs something new and different.
