Toronto- based eclectic artist Jaz Valentino is preparing to drop his sophomore project but in the interim, he shares the cinematic visuals for his song “Wild Weeds.” The solemn tune produced by Arcane Beats sees Jaz in reflective mode as he muses on the various tribulations young people go through every day. From self-doubt, depression, and battling demons in order to rebuild their lives. Backed by a moody and melancholic soundscape, Jaz delivers an impassioned performance ripe with melodic vocal inflections and evocative lyrics that explore the changing dynamics of young people’s lives in this day and age.
The visual blends a plethora of images of everyday people with dark moody lighting and some performance shots of Jaz Valentino.
Born and raised in Canada with Grenadian and Serbian heritage, Jaz Valentino’s music blurs the line between the classic warm tones of R&B and the dynamic of modern hip-hop, while still leaning on the special connection with rap and R&B music that he has had since a child. Notable for his evocative sounds, lush melodies, layered texture, captivating hook, and introspective lyrics, Jaz Valentino has long been able to connect with listeners on a deeper level, using his ‘less is more philosophy to make sure his mixes are not overly crowded, and his songs feel spacious and lush, with plenty of room for his songwriting to stick out.
“Wild Weeds” is the lead single from Jaz’s forthcoming album Jaz’s Blues (Side A), which is set for release on April 14.
