KZN-raised artist Jemapelle James has released his latest single “For Real”, marking his first track under ONErpm.
Crafted like an entry in a diary, “For Real” explores the struggle of moving forward while feeling the strong attraction to the person you genuinely wish to be with — the one with whom you “wanna get lost with”. Through authentic and vulnerable lyrics, James provides a profound insight into the complex nature of love.
“This is the type of song that gets better with every listen,” shares Jemapelle James. “It’s my favourite song right now, only because it feels so mature compared to the rest of my catalogue.”
By merging captivating melodies with emotional storytelling, Jemapelle James is establishing his unique presence within South Africa’s music scene, drawing listeners into experiences that resonate on both personal and collective levels. “For Real” serves as a powerful reminder of his artistic evolution — a moving piece that lingers even after it concludes.
