NEW MUSIC | OLIVER JONES DROPS HIS EXPLOSIVE DEBUT SINGLE AND VISUAL “UGLY”

By Rishma • On What is New ,
Oliv­er Jones announces him­self in explos­ive style with his debut single Ugly… the com­bined debut break­out release from fledgling record label power­house Pyro Music MGT.
Taken from the forth­com­ing album also entitled Ugly, Jones deliv­ers a bru­tally hon­est account of his life tribu­la­tions in which he lays his deep­est emo­tions bare.
Pro­duced, com­posed & arranged by long-time col­lab­or­at­or Mello D — Ugly arrives accom­pan­ied with a vis­cer­al visu­al nar­rat­ive dir­ec­ted by Adam Al Sened (dLO Media).
The cine­mat­ic visu­als serve to com­pli­ment Ugly’s dark and sin­is­ter themes, see­ing Jones por­tray a troubled alter-ego whose story goes from bad to worse as a night on the town unfolds.
Dis­cuss­ing his debut release, Jones states:
“I wrote Ugly at a time where things were really going wrong for me as life’s pres­sures became all con­sum­ing. Instead of play­ing the blame game, I thought I’d reflect on where I stood, and the part I was play­ing in the situ­ations I was find­ing myself in.
I’ve always been real & seek to con­vey the truth in my music, but that can’t just be exclus­ive to por­tray­ing me in a pos­it­ive light, I’ve got to be hon­est with myself & my mis­takes in life”.
In addi­tion to the single release of Ugly, the South Lon­don nat­ive has also announced the album of same title sched­uled for release later this year.
