JOA’s debut single, I Don’t Want Nobody But Your Body, arrives with a raw intensity that’s hard to ignore. At just 20, this Oslo-born artist taps into a deep well of emotion, crafting a track that feels both personal and universally relatable. The song is a heart-wrenching reflection on heartbreak, capturing the vulnerability that follows a breakup. Fans of Phoebe Bridgers and Julia Michaels will be drawn to JOA’s honest lyricism and her ability to weave her own story into melodies that tug at the heartstrings.
“I Don’t Want Nobody But Your Body” is the standout on her forthcoming EP, which is set to release in early 2025. Describing the single as her most personal work, JOA reveals, “I wrote it while going through a breakup, and it became my way of coping with my feelings.” That sense of catharsis bleeds through every note, as JOA masterfully balances emotional depth with an undeniable pop sensibility.
The track is only a glimpse into what JOA has to offer. Her debut EP promises to explore themes like early romantic relationships in Previous Problems, the power of self-compassion in A Little Kinder, and the bittersweet hindsight of Golden Years. Each song feels like a heartfelt goodbye to her teenage years, with a focus on lyrical simplicity and an organic sound that leans folky while staying rooted in pop.
With I Don’t Want Nobody But Your Body, JOA proves she’s ready to make waves. The song’s blend of aching vulnerability and catchy hooks will resonate with listeners of all ages, marking JOA as a fresh and authentic voice in pop. This is just the beginning for a promising artist whose music is poised to strike a deep chord.
