Ottowa-based artist Jonny Gems is here to break your heart with his latest single, โLast Night.โ This smooth, soulful track is the perfect soundtrack for those who have broken up for the greater good while betraying their heart.
โLast Nightโ starts slow and low, with a warm, almost melancholic melody that sets the mood for emotional honesty. The spaced-out beats nonchalantly hit. The music immersively gets under your skin before you know it.
Jonny Gems emerges further hypnotically entrancing you in anguish. His voice is a husky, soulful blend thatโs sharp and smooth. He effortlessly and candidly switches between singing and rapping, singing of how he finally let her go the last time.
The bridge takes things to a whole new level with layered harmonies that amplify Gemsโ voice and his raw emotions. As the song fades out, the harmonies repeat the haunting refrain, โWhy did we let go?โ as if to convey the singerโs inner feelings as he keeps trying to refute them and move on. The question lingers long leaving you lost in your own memories.
Fans of alternative R&B artists like 6lack, Bryson Tiller, and PartyNextDoor will find a kindred spirit in Jonny Gems. He takes those influences and adds a touch of Drakeโs introspective lyricism and Kehlaniโs raw vulnerability, creating a sound thatโs both familiar and heartbreakingly beautiful.
Listen to โLast Nightโ by Jonny Gems when you canโt stop replaying the past despite knowing the relationship has run its course.
