Rising star Naomi Grace, the 20-year-old singer/songwriter hailing from Gauteng, is back with her new single, “Screw You”.
Following the success of her debut single “Never Alone” in April 2021 and her subsequent hit “<3break” in late 2022, Naomi Grace shared a track very personal to her titled ‘Thursday’ in May of 2024. She is finally back with a fierce anthem that encapsulates the raw emotions of heartbreak.
Produced by the esteemed and award-winning Denholm Harding, “Screw You” is a testament to Naomi Grace’s evolution as both a vocalist and a songwriter.
Inspired by personal experiences of heartache, the track resonates with listeners on a visceral level, capturing the rollercoaster of emotions that accompany the end of a relationship.
Noami Grace explains “Screw You”
“Going through a breakup comes with so many emotions, and this single revolves around that part of the breakup when you are still sad but also angry.”
“I am so passionate about letting others know that they are not alone in their feelings, and because I have experienced a mass of heartbreak, I think that I have the upper hand of letting my listeners know that I am being genuine in my music.”
Naomi’s meteoric rise in the music industry has been marked by many notable achievements, but two stick out in particular.
She had the amazing opportunity to perform as a surprise/opening act for the launch of Ross Learmonth’s debut solo album “Carousel” in early April of 2023, which allowed her to share the stage with the likes of Jesse Clegg, Lee Cole, Majozi and Bianca Blanc.
In addition to this, Naomi opened for Neon Dreams on the first night of their ‘Art Of Letting Go’ tour in March of this year.
Reflecting on these milestones, Naomi Grace comments
“Both of these opportunities were definitely two of the biggest breaking points in my career, and I cannot begin to explain the feeling and emotion felt of standing on those stages and performing alongside some of my greatest role models.”
“After being able to perform with these incredible artists, I am more motivated than ever to continue to push and pursue my passion as a musician in South Africa.”
With “Screw You,” Naomi Grace invites listeners to join her on a cathartic journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
The single is available on all major digital platforms. Stream it on Spotify HERE.
