A music video that pays homage to the UK’s underground club scene will also be released at the same time
With the arrival of Japan in August for Summer Sonic 2025, British R&B singer Jorja Smith, currently in the middle of a world tour, has released his new single “With You” following “The Way I Love You” released in May, as well as his music video. Intimate, introspective, and timeless. In this soul-swaying song, Jorja expresses his emotions in the most open way. A soundtrack has been created that will brighten up the golden summer.
“Summer love song!” she says of “With You,” and while her smooth, light-hearted, layered textures and rhythmic impulses are driven by her distinctive smooth singing voice that is unique to her, floats easily over the beat. It also pays a fresh and nostalgic homage to the traditions of the British Undergraduate Club, and is seamlessly present in Gorja’s contemporary, genre-compatible vision.

At the same time, the beautiful music video for the song “With You,” directed by Ivor Lawson-Adamah, has also been released. The soulful sentiment of this song is visually captured, and the lean, cinematic footage depicts connections and indescribable tension. It expresses the emotional depth of this song and reminds me of a summer romance rooted in historical connections.
This summer, Jorja appeared at Homebass in London and Birmingham. With the event, which combines live performances with club culture, Jorja has clarified his connection to the long-standing British underground music scene. Her intuition, curating a deeply personal and emotional experience for the fans, has also been highlighted.
Meanwhile, Jorja continues his world tour, showing off bold, genreless sounds on stages around the world. On the tour, he fully demonstrates his talent for easily going back and forth between soulful ballads, R&B anthems and high-energy live music. The depth of emotion, the strength of the song, and the immersive direction have been praised by fans and critics. The tour continues to the UK, Europe, Asia and North America.
Since the release of her second album, “falling or flying,” in 2023, she has been actively collaborating with AJ Tracy, Shy Girl, and Major League DJz, expanding her creative footprint. Whether it’s soul, garage or stripped down ballads, her songs always give off intense emotion and supple style.
The new song “With You” is the latest chapter in her evolution, and is a gentle, timeless work from Jorja Smith, the UK’s most fascinating singer.
