Singer,  songwriter,  producer and director Wesley Joseph today announces his long-awaited debut album, Forever Ends Someday, the culmination of three years of immersive writing, producing and world-building. Alongside the announcement, he releases a brand new single, ‘Peace Of Mind’, featuring rap iconoclast Danny Brown, accompanied by a striking self-directed music video that further expands the album’s visual universe. The Walsall-born, London based artist continues to assert himself as one of the UK’s most ambitious multi-hyphenates, presenting a fully realised debut that distils years of introspection, creative evolution and emotional excavation into 13 expansive tracks. LISTEN + WATCH ‘PEACE OF MIND’ + PRE-SAVE THE LP HERE.

The urgent, hard-hitting new single ‘Peace Of Mind’ sees Joseph deliver a razor-sharp performance over rumbling bass and warped electronics, while Danny Brown’s frenetic verse heightens the track’s volatility. The accompanying video drifts between stark, almost clinical realism and bursts of strobe-lit chaos, with actors cycling through tense vignettes that feel half-remembered rather than staged. His filmmaking background remains inseparable from his musical identity; each visual adds a new dimension to the world of Forever Ends Someday, building a layered narrative that extends across Walsall, London, Paris and beyond.

Discussing the song, Joseph shared the following: “‘Peace Of Mind’ is about finding clarity within chaos, a juxtaposition between solace and unrest. It’s a self-prescribed pick me up and was written from an empowered but unsettled place, – sometimes you feel the fire in your stomach the most when things aren’t sweet. It was a dream having Danny Brown work on the song – growing up he was always one of my hero artists, someone who’s an outsider and knows no rules when it comes to pushing sound forward and being fearless with it. Hearing his voice on the song was such a crazy thing and the energy he came with was even better than I could ever have imagined.”

Forever Ends Someday marks Joseph’s most vulnerable and cinematic work to date. The album maps a personal timeline, drawing from childhood memories, teenage turbulence and the present moment to create scenes that shift between the real and the surreal. Throughout the record, Joseph explores the pull of nostalgia, the weight of emotional change, and the fleeting beauty of the passing of time. The music occupies a space between honesty and escapism, fusing stark realism with dreamlike, expressive production. Tracks such as the first single ‘If Time Could Talk‘ (also accompanied by a self-directed music video, which was shot in Paris and produced by Stink) evoke the feeling of moments suspended in time.

Across the album, Joseph draws from an array of influences that have shaped his artistic DNA: soul and R&B that soundtracked his upbringing, the omnipresence of rap, and the alternative electronic and psychedelic records discovered during hours spent online as a teenager. Rather than fitting within one genre, the record merges these touchpoints into a cohesive, instinctive sound – raw, cinematic and resolutely forward-thinking. His voice moves fluidly between understated soul, poetic rap and textured melodic delivery, unified by an emotional through-line that runs across all 13 songs.

Forever Ends Someday was crafted between London, Walsall, Los Angeles and a remote mountainside studio in Switzerland, closely created with an accomplished team including Nicolas Jaar (The Weeknd, Mustafa, FKA Twigs), Harvey Dweller, Tev’n, A.K. Paul, Al Shux, Ryan Raines and Romil Hemnani (Brockhampton). The process was deeply intuitive, favouring in-the-room experimentation and organic arrangement over rigid structure, which results in a record that breathes with spontaneity while maintaining a refined, deliberate sense of craft. The album features collaborations with childhood friend Jorja Smith, and the aforementioned Danny Brown.

Since his emergence with 2021’s ULTRAMARINE, Joseph has built a reputation as one of the UK’s most forward-thinking new artists. The debut project earned critical acclaim across the music and fashion worlds — from The FADER, GQ, i-D, Pigeons & Planes, Vogue. 2023’s follow-up GLOW only cemented his reputation, hailed as a bold, world-building project that blurred the boundaries between alternative R&B, rap, and soul. Joseph has collaborated with the likes of A. K. Paul, Dave Okumu, Leon Vynehall, Joy Orbison, childhood friend Jorja Smith and Loyle Carner (he appeared on the Mercury Prize shortlisted hugo and supported on a sold-out tour through the UK). Beyond this, he has since taken his captivating live show global, having embarked on a headline North American tour and delivered a triumphant sold-out London headline show at KOKO.

Wesley will also return to the stage with a sold-out intimate headline show at Hideout on the 21st of January, with further live dates to be shared soon. Sign up to the mailing list to stay up to date with all new announcements here.
