Such a bright and feel-good offering, ‘Better Now’ feels like the resolution of a long suffered drama. It’s the song you hear at the end of a movie, as the night leaves space for a glorious sunrise. David J manages to craft a light pop banger containing the right amount of groove and dreaminess, combined with a positive lyrical message. Emerging from Los Angeles, the young newcomer has teamed up with French duo ROSEBUD, a collaboration that seems to have paid off, seeing the musical magnitude that ‘Better Now’ seems to enjoy.
A talented singer, producer and pianist, David J is not your overall upcoming artist: he’s a well-rounded creative, capable to get inspired by everyday struggles and then turning them into relatable pop nuggets. Lyrically, ‘Better Now’ focuses on its author’s own healing journey, slowly working through the challenges of early adulthood. To note, he’s just 21 years old.
Taking into account his young age, the record is even more impressive. The way David J connects to us – the listeners – is rather effortless, a sign that there’s potential for growth. Audiences worldwide beware! There’s a new pop star in town.
