Saint Joshua releases new single

Over the last three years, Saint Joshua has been staking his claim as one of the most exciting voices in the UK’s pop and R&B scene. Known for his soulful lyrics and impressive vocal range, Saint blends genres while taking inspiration from iconic artists such as Usher, Frank Ocean, Stevie Wonder and Amy Winehouse.

With his growing catalogue of emotionally-charged tracks, he’s quickly gaining recognition as a rising star, winning over audiences across the globe with his unique style. Clocking over ten million streams, Saint Joshua’s music has profoundly connected with listeners as well as earning critical acclaim from tastemakers such as Wonderland, Clash, Rollacoaster and Complex Magazine while his radio support is just as impressive, with extensive plays on Radio 1 and Apple Music.

His live performances have also added to his rising popularity, with a sold-out debut London show in 2023 and a successful UK headline tour in February this year. His stage presence and energy have earned him prime festival slots at events like Latitude, The Great Escape, Dot2Dot and Live at Leeds, as well as further afield playing his first show in Los Angeles in May of 2023 and a forthcoming European tour kicking off at the start of next year.

This rising trajectory continues with the release of his highly anticipated new single, “Nasty/(En)amor),” the latest offering from his upcoming mixtape Self-(En)titled, set to drop on November 15th. With “Nasty/(En)amor),” Saint Joshua offers a sultry R&B-infused pop track that showcases his deeper, more reflective side, contrasting with the more upbeat, pop-driven singles that have come before it, such as “Blah Blah Blah,” “Do U Ever Call” and “Sweet Talk.”

Self-(En)titled, the nine-track mixtape, cuts across pop and R&B styles, drawing on a range of collaborators and co-writers such as Cashybear, Pears Macintyre, Jack Ducker, Geth, Edbl and Blair Mackichan. The mixtape is set to be one of his most personal and accomplished works to date, revealing a deeper side of Saint Joshua’s artistic vision while showcasing his versatility as a musician.

With “Nasty/(En)amor),” Saint Joshua serves up a groove alternative R&B jam driven by crisp snapping beats, sliding basslines and expressive vocals spinning smooth melodic leads. With a bright arrangement and rattling percussive touches, it’s an instantly catchy outing that puts with alluring vocal flair and songwriting talent on full display. With his next EP arriving next month, Saint Joshua is sure to win over more and more fans throughout the rest of this year and beyond.
