Buzzing songstress Journey Montana continues her red-hot momentum with a brand new single titled “Cry Baby.” The second taste of new from her forthcoming Stargirl EP, arriving November 17th.
“Cry Baby” follows on from “Jack,” which received rave reviews from Rated R&B, GlobalGrind, SOHH and more. The latter featured Journey in their “Single Ladies” column earlier this month (Oct 13).
On the track, finger-snaps and swells of orchestral violins murmur beneath the R&B phenomenon’s delicate croon. As she explores vulnerability, Journey makes it clear that she craves an intense affection – a borderline obsessive kind of love that’ll bring you to tears.
“I like to write from a place of exaggeration,” Journey Montana explains. “‘Cry Baby’ is about wanting to torture a guy who wants you. If a guy really wants me, I want him to cry for me and show me how badly he needs me.”
The video for “Cry Baby” opens on a shot of Journey in the comfort of her home. Spliced with flawlessly captured clips of the starlet, she doubles down on her sharp ultimatum: “Cry baby, cry baby, show me that you mean it / Better drop tears or I won’t believe it.” Watch above.
Check out “Cry Baby” above and stay tuned for more from Journey Montana very soon.
ABOUT JOURNEY MONTANA:
Born and raised in Harlem, New York, Journey Montana’s destiny was paved after Mariah Carey’s vocal coach commented on her perfect pitched wailing as an infant. The 19-year-old singer eased her way into music through singing into her MacBook and eventually uploading covers of popular songs on Instagram and YouTube attracting the attention of producers and fellow musicians. Her 2021 debut EP, In & Out, synthesized the essence of cool-girl R&B, full of glossy lips and juicy gossip, quickly followed but her TikTok viral hit, “Bad Decisions” in 2022. On her upcoming EP with 10K Projects, Journey Montana is ready to keep the momentum going as Harlem’s rising R&B princess with more music on the way.
