Rising talent Ruby Francis shines on pulsating new pop offering "Rush"
Embellished with tightly-constructed, catchy pop flourishes and a club-ready R&B sensibility, "Rush" is another vibrant stand-out track from the rising talent.
"Rush" clatters in with four big booms and then Ruby Francis purrs "If you want to know my name / You don't even have to ask" immediately showing her decisive agency as a woman who is not only completely in control of her romantic desires, but also her artistic craft. It's like the musical equivalent of her sauntering straight into the centre of the dancefloor and demanding that everyone takes note - so pay attention.
Having previously released two EPs that have steadily brought an ever-increasing amount of attention in her direction, the self-producing artist proves again and again that she is capable of creating fresh sounding R&B.
90s influences are peppered through the track's often brash beats that are right at the forefront of the production, yet the pop hooks come thick and fast from every direction in such a way that the song should come with a warning because this will undoubtedly be a song that stick in your head all day long.
