Melo B Jones gave Kaya FM listeners a special live performance on Platinum Fridays with T Bose. With her laid-back style, she performed familiar sounds with a soulful twist, taking a trip down memory lane.
‘Boombaptist’
Her sound is a fusion of multiple genres with a unique nostalgic interpretation. During her performance, she spoke about what her musical influences are and why she calls herself a ‘Boombaptist’, her new album, and finding her voice.
“So many influences, so many people in my life love music. From being raised with Motown and Jazz, Celine Dion was my mom’s favourite, those were my first introductions. I was introduced to hip hop by my brother, all those things made a real melting pot out of me.”
Melo B Jones spoke further about the advantages and disadvantages that the lockdown brought upon on her music career and the industry in general.
