Ro Joaquim Unleashes Infectious Pop-Rap Single: "Come Forward"

TORONTO, ON – Singer-songwriter Ro Joaquim is bringing fans to their feet and defying genres once again with the release of his vibrant new single, “Come Forward.” The energetic pop-rap track infuses a combination of infectious Latin and Afro beats with catchy lyrics, showcasing Ro Joaquim’s range as an artist and making it the perfect addition to listener’s summer playlists.

Born in London, England, raised in Maryland, U.S.A, a resident of Hamilton, Ontario and of Nigerian descent – Ro Joaquim’s worldly journey and cultural background is reflected in the sounds of his new release. Commenting on the inspiration for “Come Forward,” Ro shares, “I knew I wanted to connect with my Nigerian roots on the project and create something fun and light-hearted that could remind us of the times that were and the times that were yet to come.”

The single was originally written and recorded in early 2020 - at the onset of the COVID-19 outbreak – on day three of a song camp developed by record label collective Division 88. “’Come Forward” is a song that celebrates unity, diversity, and the joy of dancing. It felt much needed at a time where it seemed like the world was falling apart,” Ro continues.

Ro’s magnetic vocals, combined with impeccable instrumentals and a chorus that stays with you long after the song ends, make “Come Forward’ a memorable addition to his growing discography. This release is the first of many more to come, with his newly anticipated EP set to release this fall.

‘Come Forward’ is now available for streaming and download on all major music platforms, including Spotify and Apple Music.
