Rising Auckland artist JessB delivers the summer vibes with new single “Moment”
Known for combining afro-inspired diasporic sounds, both high energy and introspective, Auckland-based rapper and artist JessB makes her DNü debut with her stunning new single “Moment” accompanied by a music video directed by Connie Ca$h. Written in solitude, and produced by MOW Music, the track explores the intricacies of desiring something that cannot be attained despite a strong desire for it.
The track has dropped at the right time— it’s summer and people are spending more time outside, living and enjoying life. JessB expertly showcases her versatility as an artist by delivering the perfect summer vibe that boasts a mix of R&B, afrobeat, and hip-hop. Infectious energy and good vibes throughout, “Moment” is an impressive track with both replay value and global appeal.
“As with the majority of my music videos – this one would have been unable to achieve without the support and involvement of my friends and community. The video was filmed in a local venue “Neck of the Woods” over the course of an evening. The inclusion of Ajani Russel (NYC) as my love interest happened by chance – we had a mutual connect us on their visit to Auckland, and we have actually gone on to be really good friends ourselves! The whole premise of the video was based on capturing a “moment” between two people. The idea party may be full but you can only see one other person is something we wanted to create a snapshot of.” — Jess B.
