After dabbling in Caribbean grooves and melodies on his February album Healing Phase, Jahkoy settles firmly back into the R&B swagger that forged him on his latest single "Man on Fire."
I've been yearning for a Jahkoy song like "Reasons" since it introduced him to me in 2021, and "Man on Fire" delivered. The Toronto singer draws the listener in close for an intimate vocal performance atop a pointed drum beat and gentle piano as he shows off with stank-face-inducing runs over a carousel of fire motifs, just because he can.
"Baby, I'm a walking flame / I just hope you feel the same way / My heart is on fire, babe / I'm blowing smoke in the air."
