The latest release "1212" from Canadian R&B artist julzzz exhibits a vulnerable and somewhat sorrowful side to her songwriting.

Whether you're a guy or a girl, her lyrics are bound to be relatable to you to some degree, and I love the fact that her performance oscillates between a range of emotions throughout the track. Adorned in the backdrop are these glittery keys that give prominence to the dreamy allure of the track, while the smooth hip-hop-inspired drums provide a slick, bounce rhythm.

"1212 (want to want you) is about seeing the potential you have with someone but not wanting to lose yourself to someone who’s not ready for you."
