John-Robert Teams Up With Kathleen on His EP.
Written by: Sarah Evangelista
Just at 19 years old, Virginia based artist John-Robert has released a handful of singles, including ‘Pelican’ and ‘Urs’, and put out two EPs, including Bailey Barely Knew Me and the one that was recently released; Adeline. The four track project features the title track, ‘Adeline’, featuring singer/songwriter Kathleen, a string quartet version, and a remixed version by Joey Pecoraro.
John-Robert was discovered by Ricky Reed, from his cover of ‘Same Drugs’ by Chance The Rapper, shown here, and since then, he’s grown a big follower count, has caught the attention of Nice Life and Warner Records, and his track ‘Adeline’ has gained over one million streams.
‘Adeline’ is a sweet and powerful track, that will hit you in your feels as soon as you listen to the chorus: “So if you're cold / Then don't leave lonely / I'll walk you home / No, you don't have to love me, no / Oh Adeline”. Although this EP is the same song, done differently each track, it’s a beautiful EP, and it might even make you teary eyed.
