Jessica LM & John Lundun Collaborate On New Single, ‘Crown’

By @Thabiso on 03/27/2023 in Music

SA producer, John Lundun has teamed up with vocalist Jessica LM on the brand new single, ‘Crown’. The single is released ahead of John Lundun’s forthcoming ‘Aries EP’, due for release on June 2nd.


“‘Crown’ is a song of encouragement to all the Queens,” explains Lundun. “Women are side-lined, undermined in our society and so many of our industries. With all this happening, they should always remember to put their crowns back on, each and every morning, take their stand and impact the world as they have through generations”. 


Speaking on how the collaboration came about and what the experience of working  with Jessica LM was like, John Lundunsays: “I knew Jessica’s manager, Muhle Matthew, from back in the day and we used to be part of an Indie band called 3D. I reached out to her letting her know that I wanted to work with Jessica and she got us together in the studio. It just felt like everything fell into place. It was easy and effortless, our energies just matched and it was a short session with so much done at the end of it.” 


‘Crown’ is also the theme song for the Africa Rising Music Conference and will see John Lundun and Jessica LM perform it at the opening event. 


The single is accompanied by a fun music video on which John Lundun and Jessica LM worked with Tumelo from BSV (Bearlii Sober Visuals). Both Tumelo and John directed the video, and Tumelo looked after the filming and editing. The minimalist video shows the duo performing in front of a variety of colourful backdrops. 


Paradise Sound System together with John Lundun intend to release a body of work that aims to have a place both in people’s heads and their hearts. Featuring artists who all bring the EP to a higher level, the Aries EP contains an amazing combination of strong, dance/House beats.
