In this powerful episode of Real Talk , Fernando sits down with the soulful, honest, and deeply insightful Jorja Smith . From the origin of her breakout single “Blue Lights” to working with industry giants like Kendrick Lamar and Drake, Jorja opens up about her creative process, her rise to fame, and the mindset that keeps her grounded. Jorja reflects on writing “Blue Lights” at just 17 years old, inspired by her media studies on post-colonialism and grime, Dizzee Rascal’s “Sirens,” and real-life observations of police violence and racial profiling. She explains how interviews with young Black boys and an incident involving a friend sparked the narrative behind the song. What started as a school project became a global anthem with deep social impact. Jorja describes her writing process as instinctive and rooted in truth. She never writes about what she doesn’t know; her art comes directly from lived experiences, emotions, and the world around her. Her ability to translate feelings into lyrics is natural, not trained—and it’s what makes her sound uniquely hers. Jorja shares the surreal experience of being invited to collaborate with Kendrick for the Black Panther soundtrack. She details their first studio session, how they built the song “I Am,” and how organic the creative energy felt. She also talks about Drake’s mindset advice: “Nothing is impossible. Whatever you want, make it happen.” Despite working with icons, she stays grounded and grateful. Jorja discusses how life has changed since her rise to fame—being recognized in cities around the world, adjusting to the loss of privacy, and watching her parents proudly share her accomplishments online. Through it all, she remains down-to-earth and focused on her craft. From starring in a major Nike campaign to keeping fit through boxing, Jorja talks about strengthening both her body and self-confidence. She credits friends for encouraging her to embrace her natural beauty and stay authentic, especially in an era dominated by social media scrutiny. Jorja reveals artists she’d love to collaborate with, including Frank Ocean, Solange, and Salaam Remi. While she avoids planning too far ahead, she’s excited to write new music once her tour schedule allows. For her, music evolves naturally—song by song. Growing up mixed-race in a mostly white school shaped her sense of self, but she never doubted her uniqueness. Ten years from now, she simply hopes to be happy and still making meaningful music.

La narrazione restituisce l’urgenza di cantare cheattraversa Jorja Smith fin da bambina: le sue parole diventano peso e respiro, una doppia anima tra scrittura e musica. Cresce in un mondo fatto di contrasti, tra strade spigolosee voci madri che insegnano a non piegare la schiena. Una voce che non cerca fama ma verità, preparandosi a farsiascoltare senza chiedere permesso, in un percorso di fragilità e forza che si evolve fino al debutto e oltre, con collaborazioni e radici profonde nellacultura musicale globale.

A Lyon, les fans rêvaient de la voir un jour dans leur ville… contre toute attente, elle est venue offrir le double ! Les 14 et 15 septembre dernier, Jorja Smith a offert un week-end d’exception au Radiant-Bellevue ! Invitée par Because Music, la rédaction était présente, et on vous raconte tout ! Demae, le match parfait pour jouer en première partie de Jorja Smith Pour cette tournée européenne, l’autrice-compositrice issue du Nord-Ouest de Londres, Demae, ouvre pour Jorja Smith. Sa musique offre une dose de douceur et délivre une expérience introspective, ce qui conditionne idéalement le public pour accueillir l’acte principal de la soirée. Les vrais fans de poésie, de hip-hop et d’accords neo-soul reconnaissent la voix onirique de Demae, qui s’est révélée pour la première fois en 2013 avec le trio rap Hawk House ( cf le clip Tidal Tendencies ), à l’époque comparé aux Fugees. Expérimenter ‘falling or flying’, des premières palpitations aux derniers roulements de tambour Le show que tout le monde attend commence sur de lourds roulements de tambours. On y retrouve les titres phares de l’album tels que Feelings , ou encore She Feels . Quant à Greatest Gift , elle l’introduit comme une lettre qu’elle s’est écrite pour elle-même. Qui sont les musiciens de Jorja Smith sur scène ? Amane Suganami est le directeur musical de Jorja Smith. Multi-instrumentiste, il était surélevé sur la scène, tel un chef d’orchestre divin, pilotant séquences, clavier et guitare additionnelle. Arrive ensuite Thomas Totten à la guitare, déjà remarqué aux côtés de Kara Marni et d’Ed Sheeran. A ses côtés on entend les lignes de basses insolentes du bassiste Mutale Chashi , qui appuie les rythmes effrénés de la section rythmique. Dans cette section on y retrouve JJ Wallace , batteur et multi-instrumentiste dont on vous recommande le single Never Before , et Richard Sweet aux percussions. Côté voix, 3 choristes subliment la performance vocale de Jorja Smith. Peace Oluwatobi , voix alto, déjà remarquée sur la scène londonienne auprès de Little Simz et Stormzy. En soprano vous pouvez apprécier la voix d’Alyssah , fidèle à sa culture carribéenne et qui a sorti un EP intitulé Little Island Girl , aux sonorités suaves, jazz & neo-soul. Enfin, en parfait tenor, il est bon de retrouver Joel Bailey, connu sous le nom de Baely , dont la présence et la puissance vocale ne cessent d’impressionner Jorja Smith, notamment sur son morceau Feelings.
