Saint Joshua ‘Nasty’ – out now!

Saint Joshua’s new single, **”Nasty,”** is a stunning blend of R&B and pop that further cements his position as one of the most exciting artists emerging from the UK. As the fourth release from his upcoming mixtape Self-(En)titled, slated for a November 15 release, “Nasty” sets the stage for what promises to be a deeply personal and genre-fluid body of work. Known for his ability to seamlessly weave together influences from legends like Usher and Frank Ocean, this latest track emphasizes his mastery of sensual, R&B-driven storytelling, while retaining a fresh, pop-infused edge.

On “Nasty,” Saint Joshua’s vocals are the centerpiece, showcasing his dynamic range with a captivating smoothness. His voice, simultaneously tender and commanding, channels the soulful energy of artists like Stevie Wonder while maintaining the modern flair of Frank Ocean’s introspective R&B. The production is sleek, with Cashybear and his team of collaborators crafting an atmospheric soundscape rich in lush harmonies and minimalist beats. The subtle, throbbing bassline and moody synths add a sultry layer to the track, perfectly complementing the intimate lyrics.

This track marks a sonic departure from his previous more pop-oriented singles like “Blah Blah Blah” and “Do U Ever Call,” taking a deeper dive into the realm of R&B. “Nasty” is full of slow-burning seduction, with a more mature and reflective tone. It feels like a natural evolution for Saint Joshua, expanding his versatility while staying true to his roots.

With over 14.5 million streams to his name and mounting critical acclaim, Saint Joshua is riding a wave of momentum. His previous EPs and singles, including the standout “Palo Santo,” have garnered him significant attention from tastemakers and major radio stations like BBC Radio 1 and Apple Music. The buzz surrounding his upcoming mixtape is palpable, and “Nasty” only heightens the anticipation.

Saint Joshua’s success extends beyond the studio as well. His sold-out debut show in London and slots at major UK festivals, like Latitude and The Great Escape, are a testament to his growing fanbase. As he prepares for a 2024 UK headline tour and European dates in 2025, it’s clear that his live performances are just as electric as his recorded music.

With, Self-(En)titled, Saint Joshua is poised to deliver a project that straddles pop and R&B effortlessly, cementing his place as a powerful voice in the contemporary music landscape. “Nasty” is a bold introduction to what could very well be his most accomplished work yet, and it’s a thrilling sign of what’s to come.
