![]() ![]() Though the song has a breakdown ending that would lead to one of the more drawn out and weaker moments on the project, it was seemingly the lone flaw, and it also made sense considering the title of the song. Here Jorja sings a fantastic hook and would go on to have quite the flow in this song which features some groovy production. The last track, ‘Imperfect Circle’ picks up the pace quite a bit and even provides quite the “sunny” vibe. When Maverick Sabre breaks onto the song he adds a contrast that is not heard anywhere else on the EP and sounds incredible, but then Jorja rejoins with Maverick, making for a very special moment. The next song and the actual ‘Carry Me Home’ is another beautifully emotional track. The interlude to ‘Carry Me Home’ is a more so a spoken poem, as Thea Gorjac speaks gently about Jorja’s desires and curiosities along a dreary instrumental. Led by slow and calm piano playing, Jorja’s voice is big, yet soft, and still very soulful the entire time. The next song, ‘So Lonely’ is arguably even more sad and emotional than the first. With the refrain “‘Cause only sun in the summer lasts, No holdin’ on and no lookin’ back”, Jorja emphasizes the emotion of the song before a funky guitar closes out the track. Starting the project with ‘Something in the Way’, angelic voices precede Jorjas’ weary and beautiful lyrics, singing emotionally over a heavy, slow groove. Now, she releases her debut EP, 'Project 11'. It is a short but emotional blast of unquestionable talent that surely will have much more to say in the near future.Having released her first couple of singles as well as a short-film, Jorja Smith has earned herself a Drake co sign as well as a spot on NAO’s latest tour. Jorja Smith is no doubt on the way to becoming a huge name next year, and this EP is the proof of that. Allowing us to appreciate the richness in her voice, and giving us a snapshot of what we can expect from this new talent on future releases. Instead of the full production methods of some of her previous singles, most of this release is fairly stripped back. Still, as an introduction to an artist goes, 'Project 11' certainly gives us the bulk of her talents and abilities. Instead she has opted for some far newer works, as well as a collaboration with Maverick Sabre on the song 'Carry Me Home'. Yet despite the surge in interest in the singer, thanks to her debut single 'Blue Lights, that track isn't included in her debut EP 'Project 11'. ![]() Having spent the last few months living in a world of hype, we finally have the first release from promising up-and-comer Jorja Smith. ![]()
