Budding New Jersey artist GROOVY brings a sultry, upbeat bop to the table with the release of "KNO ME" from his upcoming EP.

With the rise of Jersey Club in the past two years, we’re witnessing a broad number of artists out of the scene who are putting its infectious sound at the forefront. GROOVY, for example, has been making some significant waves recently, especially after the success of “jersey luv.” His smooth vocal prowess feel seductive, perfectly contrasting the electrifying uptempo grooves of the regional sound. However, after garnering significant attention online with singles like “jersey luv,” he’s ramping up for the release of his forthcoming EP.

Ahead of the project’s release, GROOVY unveiled his latest offering, “KNO ME, a stellar single that indicates the good things to come on his upcoming project, Crying In The Club. The singer’s rich baritone voice is the biggest seller on this song, layering these sensual vocal melodies on top of the production, courtesy of close collaborator Alejandro, allowing both to fuse in complete synchronization. However, at its core, the song surrounds the complex emotions of heartbreak, specifically coming to grips with the fact that the entire relationship was built off of lies. But GROOVY’s ability to mesh the sultry efforts of R&B with this uptempo production drives home his emotional delivery.
