JONASKAY starts a new era with "Nouveau Départ"

JONASKAY's "Nouveau Départ" is the focus track from his first EP, PHENIX, which will be released by April 18, 2025. A genre-blending masterpiece that fuses R&B and Afrobeat, the song is an homage to his childhood days on the streets of Luanda, Angola. With this release, JONASKAY presents himself equally as one of the top competitors in the already competitive Afro-music environment.

"Nouveau Départ" means "New Beginning," and the song is true to its title. It is an intensely personal narrative delivered in hypnotic sounds, with smooth rhythms and vivid storytelling. Blending sonorous R&B with bright Afrobeat influences, JONASKAY vividly recounts his past and welcomes boundless horizons ahead.

This is a cinematic experience. The accompanying music video is a gorgeous mix of live-action film and animation, further enhancing JONASKAY's visual storytelling. It embodies the essence of transformation, resilience, and growth themes central to "PHENIX."

With the EP on the way, JONASKAY is now gearing up to hit the road. The forthcoming tour will span France from April to October of 2025, and beyond featuring his artistry, will have a higher calling. Most of these concerts will support groups that assist exiles, deepening the artist's longstanding connection with questions of identity, displacement, and aspiration.

JONASKAY is blazing his trail in the global music scene with "Nouveau Départ." If you like genre-bending, exploratory lyrics, and lush, real-life soundscapes, you need to give this one a spin. As he gets ready to show "PHENIX" to the world, each stream, share, and drop of support helps amplify his voice and vision.
