Wesley Joseph has released his debut album Forever Ends Someday. Three years in the making, he finally shares a glimpse into his world. The record follows his journey of growing up and learning to trust the process of reaching this milestone. Dedicated to “all the dreamers out here,” it makes perfect sense that one of the standout singles feels just like that — a dream.

For the track ‘July’, Wesley teams up with Jorja Smith. This is anything but a random collaboration — it feels meant to be. The two are longtime friends who both grew up in Walsall, which adds an extra layer of intimacy to the song. Over a soft, melancholic production, they reflect on their upbringing, growth and shared nostalgia.

The track carries a deeply personal feeling, partly because it was recorded together at home. To complete the full-circle moment, Wesley also directed the video himself. It doesn’t get much more honest than this.
