Nejure, BOYFRIEND [📷: Brent Faulkner/The Musical Hype; Nejure; Clker-Free-Vector-Images, Królestwo Nauki, OpenClipart-Vectors, Pete Linforth, Tumisu from Pixabay]Ascending Italian pop musician delivers an engaging and enjoyable performance on his self-described ‘damn gay song,’ “BOYFRIEND.”  

Oh Nejure – what a beautiful specimen you are! Che bell’uomo!! Not only is the Italian singer a certified hottie, who rocks hard without a shirt, he’s also alluring as an ascending musician.  Following his debut single, “You Know What I Need” (released in December 2023), he brings the heat on his ‘damn gay song’, “BOYFRIEND” 🏳️‍🌈.  Written by Matteo Scarabicchi, Nejure produced “BOYFRIEND” alongside Pashabeats with engaging and enjoyable results.

Nejure, BOYFRIEND [📷: Nejure]The instrumental is one of many selling points regarding “BOYFRIEND.” The production is colorful, superbly embracing the American pop aesthetic.  The backdrop is a fabulous mixture of cool and exuberant synths, anchored by sick groove.  Beyond the instrumental, Nejure slays in the vocal department.  He sounds as beautiful as he looks (couldn’t resist). His accent is charming and, dare I say, sexy.  The sexiness is fitting given the romantic theme.  Furthermore, warm vocal production ups the ante.  The simple, repetitive lyrics of the chorus leave doubt in my mind what Nejure desires, as well as his – wait for it – boyfriend: “I wanna be your boyfriend / You wanna be my boyfriend / I wanna be your boyfriend / You wanna be my boyfriend.”  No extensive analysis is necessary here.  Nejure is a handsome, talented individual who easily tickles my fancy on his sophomore single, “BOYFRIEND”. Ultimately, it’s well-produced, well-performed, and lyrically and thematically, it’s simple and relatable. Eccezionale!
