Jimmy Nevis Celebrates A Decade In The Music Industry By Announcing New Album ‘Things We Don’t Talk About’

He’s responsible for hits like ‘Heartboxing’, ‘7764’, ‘Elephant Shoes’ and ‘Balloon’ and to celebrate an entire decade in the music industry, Cape Town-based pop sensation Jimmy Nevis has revealed that he will be releasing his new studio album ‘Things We Don’t Talk About’ on 27 January 2023.

The star dropped ‘AYO’, the lead single off the album last year and has just released ‘Touch Me’ as the project’s second single. ‘Touch Me’ is a fresh remake of Dawnay’s classic hit single ‘You Touch Me’ with Nevis’ unique take and remake of it.

“I was working on a beat one day and the melody of Dawnay’s track just kept popping in my head – next thing I knew, I was chatting to his publishing team who were very supportive in letting me sample his incredible song. This song is nostalgic and carries a big South African Spirit. I wanted to bring it back, but in my own way.”

Nevis speaks further on the development of his version of the song and says “I did 4 versions of this song and eventually we went with the afrobeat. It was produced by myself and 2 of South Africa’s best producers: Shaney Jay and Ameen Harron. I just wanted to have fun with it and not take life too seriously.”.

When asked what can fans expect on his upcoming project, Nevis says “An album is always an exciting release, but this one is a lot more out there. I think people are going to relate to a lot of it. I hope they take the time to digest it properly – the lyrics have many layers.”
