JP.Kazadi's 'Harder', the opening salvo from his newly released album ‘The Birth of Sound’, isn't just a track; it's a statement. A vibrant burst of modern soul, it immediately grabs your attention, dressed in a shimmering coat of pop sensibilities. The driving force behind the song is a compelling undercurrent of electronica, pushing the track forward with relentless energy.

JP.Kazadi's vocals are the star here, effortlessly smooth and imbued with a soulful warmth. They add a touch of genuine magic to lyrics that are far from throwaway. This isn't just a catchy tune; it's a call for change, a plea for awareness. Lines like “Time to wake up, be empowered, it must be stopped now, all these lies they say” resonate with a raw honesty, reflecting a deep concern for the current social climate.

The track, as JP.Kazadi himself suggests, is an "awakening of masses towards consumption and narrative that are self-destructive to our humanity and society as whole". It's a call to empowerment, a nudge towards self-knowledge. This isn't just music for the ears; it's music for the soul, a rallying cry disguised as a pop song.

JP.Kazadi, a singer-songwriter with a clear gift for blending genres, draws from a rich tapestry of influences, spanning soul, rock, jazz, and beyond. This eclectic mix results in a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly unique. He has a knack for creating music that speaks directly to the heart, and 'Harder' is a testament to this ability.

‘The Birth of Sound’ is a beautiful body of work, and 'Harder' serves as a compelling introduction to the journey it offers. It's a track that leaves you wanting more, a promise of soulful depth and musical exploration. JP.Kazadi has clearly crafted something special, a record that invites listeners to not just listen, but to engage, to feel, and perhaps, even to change.
