Manchester vocalist and producer Private Joy, aka Pops Roberts, has been making a name for herself via tasty collabs, legendarily soulful DJ sets, and fronting UK soul band Lovescene. Now Rhythm Section International, the label that gave us the likes of Chaos in the CBD and Dan Kye, have just announced Pops' debut solo EP Desire!. With a name borrowed from Prince's classic tune, Private Joy dishes up five sumptuous streetsoul numbers that will find a home in the hearts of fans of sensual 80s R&B, soulful house, and the impossible cool of Sade. - Flying Out
Private Joy?! With a namesake derived from the mighty Prince’s catalogue, and its lustful connotations, Private Joy is the producer of soul band Lovescene and a supreme vocalist of the Manchester scene. With collaborations working with the likes of Ruf Dug, Finn, and Lenzman, a solo EP was inevitable and a statement this is.
Pops Roberts’ first solo EP debuts on Rhythm Section INTL bringing together influences from Streetsoul, 80s ‘babymaker’ RnB records and a slice of 00s soulful house in there for good measure. In just over 18 minutes, Private Joy welcomes you into her world of sensuality and soulful warmth. Musical hugs galore, the production balances synths, harps, saxophones, tight beats and meaningful lyrical content; eschewing millennial whoops for Sade indebted dulcet tones.
