With a fresh year ahead, vibrant music awaits on the horizon. One of the most anticipated releases comes from Omaha born and currently Los Angeles residing singer-songwriter, JeRonelle. Reemerging with new song “Stuck,” a passionate, soulful song that captivates the essence of re-establishing a connection with a past love that they generated rich feelings for, JeRonelle is showcasing why he is one of the freshest voices to come out of R&B.
Originally from Omaha, Nebraska — JeRonelle is a musical person at his core and his sound can be described as soulful, traditional R&B. You can also hear church melodies within his music, so it’s no wonder that some of the icons he takes inspiration from include: John Legend, Donny Hathaway, Daryl Coley, Kim Burrell, Maxwell, John P. Kee, The Clark Sisters, and The Jacksons.
“I would describe my sound as a mix of traditional R&B, church, and hints of [op on occasion,” he tells RemixdMag. “I try to pattern myself after iconic vocalists who came before and I consider myself a bit of a storyteller so lyrics and vocal ability matter a lot to me.”
“Stuck” is the lead single from JeRonelle’s forthcoming EP ‘Regret & Reflect,’ coming this Spring.
“I love the backstory behind my name as it is a combination of Jehovah/Jesus, as well as Ron & Michelle (my parents),” he explained. “I feel as though my name is undeniably unique and allows me to stand out especially as an artist.”
As far as his inspiration for pursuing a career in music, JeRonelle says that music has always been an integral part of his life.
“Music has been an integral part of my life since childhood so naturally, I take my craft seriously,” he said. “I’m passionate about music because its gotten me through so many moments of my life whether good or bad. I often find inspiration when going back and studying my favorite artists and their contemporaries, but as of late I’ve also been inspired by the work coming from my peers and artist friends.”
His song “Stuck” is definitely emotional, but JeRonelle masters the storytelling of heartbreak and losing someone you love to someone else.
“‘Stuck’ is an emotionally charged track about the aftermath of losing the one you love to someone new and having to cope with the memories and bitter feelings,” he continued. “I wrote this song as well as a bunch of others in late 2021/early 2022 after finding my way out of a failed dating situation. The mixing process took a little longer than expected so I decided that it’s be best to release the new music in 2023 and come into the new year super strong.”
