WESLEY JOSEPH HIGHLY ANTICIPATED DEBUT ALBUM ‘FOREVER ENDS SOMEDAY’

Singer,  songwriter,  producer and director Wesley Joseph today releases his long-awaited 13-track debut album Forever Ends Someday, out now via Secretly Canadian. A fully realised and deeply cinematic body of work, the album brings together the emotional and sonic universe Joseph has been carefully weaving across recent years — a world defined by introspection, atmosphere and instinctive storytelling.

Alongside the album’s release, Wesley also unveils a brand new single and accompanying video featuring longtime collaborator and childhood friend Jorja Smith, a standout moment that captures the project’s emotional core in vivid detail. Shot in their hometown of Walsall, the visual returns Joseph to his roots, grounding the collaboration in a place that has shaped both artists’ histories. Cinematic in scope yet intimate in feeling — juxtaposing the rawness of midlands life with expansive shots of Walsall’s surrounding greenery. There’s a real sense of movement and intimacy that mirrors the track’s emotional undercurrent, the rolling hills and quiet residential moments lend the film a reflective, almost dreamlike quality.

Across Forever Ends Someday, Joseph expands on the immersive palette heard in previous singles including “Pluto Baby” — his BBC Radio 1 Hottest Record — as well as “If Time Could Talk” and “Peace Of Mind” (ft. Danny Brown). These tracks offered early entry points into the album’s unfolding world, with almost all of the singles paired with striking, self-directed visuals that underscored Joseph’s singular, cinematic approach. From modernist architecture in Paris to fleeting moments across London streets, the visuals have consistently blurred the line between realism and abstraction as a throughline.

“July” was written during a difficult time for me but equally a time where I felt really thankful for the things that I do have. Just as the song started making sense and I knew what it was about – Jorja text me. It was scary timing because in that moment I knew this was our song. We recorded her vocals back home in Walsall after a day catching up in the sun reminiscing and dreaming, talking about growing up, how much everything’s changed and how far we’ve come. It was a really special thing to be sat with one of my oldest friends having a 360 moment on record.
