In My Corner
Jem Wax
WE SAY
Fusing intimate lyricism, lush harmonies, and a smooth vocal delivery, London artist and producer Jem Wax serves up a neo-soul gem with 'In My Corner'. Taken from her recently released EP, 'Annual Leave', the track navigates the tension between vulnerability and self-preservation. With intimate lyrics wrapped in soul and jazz textures, alongside a sharp pop sensibility, lush harmonies, and a velvet vocal that pulls you close, 'In My Corner' is an exquisite introduction to Jem's music. She's already notched her first Spotify editorial placement on Our Generation and won support from BBC London Introducing's Jess Iszatt, who's marked her as a rising talent worth tracking. Next up, Jem will be performing at Pizza Express's The Pheasantry on 11 October. With its raw honesty and distinctive vocal character, 'In My Corner' belongs on soul, R&B and new pop playlists, warrants more BBC Introducing plays, spins on Radio 1 Future Pop, and fits naturally on soulful shows on Radio 2 and 6 Music. For fans of Olivia Dean, Mahalia, Corinne Bailey Rae, and Hiatus Kaiyote.
