Following on from a busy schedule of releases, which saw him develop his back catalogue with a string of acclaimed singles, Jai Winter returns with his latest anthem ‘Backroads’. Penned about struggle and perseverance, the track amplifies Winter as an intuitive creative force.
Peering its head with atmospheric synths, the new track sees Jai Winter seamlessly blend trap, and hip-hop with an elevating flow. The anthem champions dedication and drive, with sticky refrains plastered across its sub-three-minute runtime to give the track its emphatic edge. Featuring electrifying percussion with a lo-fi-esque production style, Winter’s defiant lyrical performance sees him cement his reputation as a fast-rising young talent.
“I wrote this song about the struggles one faces in life and the peace that can be found through faith and perseverance. The phrase “backroads” symbolizes a long conventional path to achieving one’s goals, suggesting that, while the journey may be long & challenging, it can lead to a fulfilling and meaningful existence.”
