Singer, songwriter, and producer Wesley Joseph returns with his latest single “Pluto Baby,” which has been named Hottest Record on BBC Radio 1. The track draws listeners into a richly textured soundscape, balancing mood and melody while further expanding the creative universe surrounding his forthcoming debut album Forever Ends Someday, arriving 10th April.
Across recent singles, Joseph has been steadily shaping the emotional and sonic identity of the 13-track project, with “Pluto Baby” adding another vivid layer.
Grand in scale yet intricately detailed, the song pairs instantly memorable hooks with sharp, purposeful rap verses. Warped guitar tones twist through the arrangement while heavy low-end pulses beneath shimmering synth lines that rise and fade throughout the track. Fleeting piano notes punctuate Joseph’s verses, introducing moments of delicacy within an otherwise brooding and expansive sonic palette. At the centre of it all, his voice cuts through the atmosphere with clarity, anchoring the track’s intensity and emotion.
