Did you ever imagine Chris Brown taking you to prom? Or have you ever thought it’d be a great idea for Usher to cover the Disney hit ‘A Whole New World’? Now press play on Jurell’s debut ‘One Night Only’.

This half-disney prince, half-RnB superstar combines polished production, rich vocal tones and a killer hook (not to mention his undeniable good looks) that’ll have you listening on repeat. ‘One Night Only’ could easily be sandwiched into a playlist between Chris Brown’s modern classic ‘Forever’ and Usher’s 2016 electropop release ‘Crash’ - it’s not out of place. 

‘One Night Only’ has all the markings of a hit; clean pop production, easy dance floor groove and unreal vocals. 

A true highlight is the pre-chorus; Jurell’s innate vocal talent honed by years of gospel, has just a slight intentional wink of autotune, making the track relevant to today’s listeners and leading to an electronic finish that is equal parts inspiring and groovy. The song’s classic pop arrangement creates space for well-written lyrics and spotlight’s Jurell’s immaculate falsetto. You can’t help but sing along (or try to).

The ebbing lyrical delivery and expert hook will have you living inside the life of this track, playing it over and over whilst pretending you’re in a Video Hits film clip rolling down the freeway in your dream convertible, your hair blowing stylishly in a flattering and sexy amount of warm summer wind. 

Jurell is only just getting started. Watch this space.
