FrontnBack are making waves for good reason, and their new single โRoyal Beauty Queenโ shows exactly why this cross-continental duo is quickly becoming one to watch. Born from the creative bond of two brothers, with roots stretching from Lagos to London, the project blends rich cultural influences into music. Released with an equally heartfelt video filmed in Hampstead Heath, the track radiates gratitude, devotion, and joy.
At its core, โRoyal Beauty Queenโ is a love song, but it doesnโt stop there. James, the frontman who ironically represents the โBackโ in their name, channels longing into something larger than one relationshipโit becomes a tribute to the women and loved ones who make life brighter. Inspired by the simple absence of his partner for a night, the song turns that ache of missing someone into a shimmering anthem of adoration. And musically, it delivers on every front. Organic tapping percussion shakes and sparkles like sunlight on water, while the melody flows easily and soothingly, carrying the warmth of afrobeats and the bounce of dancehall into a radiant pop groove.
Then thereโs Jamesโ voice, husky and exuberant. He sings with a relaxed confidence, brimming with joy but never overstated. The lyrics are playful yet sincere, spinning between English and pidgin in lines like โI Dey missing my royal beauty queenโฆ no matter what they say no one change my mind.โ Itโs catchy, heartfelt, and easy to hum along to, a summertime groove that sticks without trying too hard.
Paired with the videoโs natural beauty and authentic family presence, โRoyal Beauty Queenโ lands as both a love letter and a celebration. This piece of music uplifts, affirms, and connects in rhythm. You can find FrontnBackโs music video on YouTube.
