The prospective Capetonian songbird, Gemma Fassie, released her newest single, “What You Want”, inviting listeners into her world of wonder, questioning her deepest motives within a hopeful relationship with a lover.

This was a beautifully constructed narrative, with the gifted vocalist telling a tale of her experience of navigating her ups and downs with a certain person she dearly cares for.

She used this track to express her hopes for that certain someone to hopefully evolve into the person she had hoped for, going further as to stay with him while urging him to expand on what he actually wants from the relationship.

However, it’s evident she can’t and will never let go, because the love is what has been keeping her attached towards the relationship. She even goes as far as mentioning how the sound of his voice is what keeps her going.

The instrumental for this track was outstanding to experience, with soft guitar notes hovering above a meandering pop beat that perfectly captured the spirit and sentiment of the track. A truly wonderful yet impactful Pop listening experience.

Gemma Fassie’s ascension within the SA music atmosphere is something we cannot deny, having recently released her hit 2024 single, “No More”, while also having the opportunity to feature on Jay Jody’s banger, titled “SOUL TIES”, on his latest “SHINE O’CLOCK” album.

For now, we should appreciate her latest stand-alone drop, now available on multiple streaming platforms.
