The Los Angeles-based artists Balo and Kobi Jonz went the route of a sonic sunrise with their new alternative rap single, “Wake Up.” A perfectly cohesive mix of silky production, sincere lyricism, and soulful melodies, this song is a tribute to romance, intimacy, and the times we wish to enjoy with that special person.
“Wake Up,” which he produced and co-wrote, has a warmness that immediately pulls listeners into its embrace. Mixed by Live On Audio and mastered by Branden Gasilos, the song sports a hypnotic soundscape, perfectly supporting its tender theme. Kobi Jonz’s seasoning provides an international flavor that ensures the song cuts across cultures.
The narrator admits to the throwaway fixation that wakes us up to open up in “Wake Up,” lyrically a song yearning to hop into the day with the beloved. Whether you are wrapped in the arms of love or waking up by yourself dreaming of what was, this song captures the essence of the morning’s longing and connection. The dreamy production, relaxed but rhythmic flow, and deep vocal textures make it a leisurely once-over on any playlist.
Part love song, part experience, “Wake Up” accompanies those quiet, tender mornings or the soundscape of when love is elusive. With such a personal foundation and yet relatable feel, they have shown yet again that music transcends time zones and feelings.
