It’s officially come to that point that every song GoodLuck drops, is an absolute banger – and their new single ‘June’ is just another testament to that fact. The electronic group has united with Nigeria’s Ice Prince for an anthem that is bound to heat things up in both hemispheres.
The group explains that ‘June’ was born in the ultimate search for summer. The past two years have felt like a long, cold winter brought on by the pandemic with extended lockdowns and travel restrictions. And as the Southern Hemisphere creeps into Winter, the Northern Hemisphere gears up for a much-needed Summer season, mostly uninhibited and rule free. This is why ‘June’ is a song the world needs right now.
‘June’ is a song about the relief of being able to head outside into the sunshine and get away on vacation. GoodLuck and Ice Prince hope the song celebrates the end of hardship and the start of a beautiful summer where people connect, dance and celebrate life in the sunshine around the world.
Sonically, the track is a crossover from Afro-beat and had sprinklings of Reggaeton and Western pop music in the mix. It is catchy and primed to be a major song in Nigeria, Europe and the rest of Africa this year.
“I love the lyrical play that this song has,” says lead singer and songwriter Jules Harding. ‘We all count down the months to summer, and those winter months can be super depressing although I’m not bashing winter – but everyone knows the best holidays are in the sun! It was too much fun writing and producing this song with Ice Prince, Ben and Greg Abrahams – I think that we captured the good vibes in the music, but you let me know!”
