Jade Latrice, an R&B singer-songwriter hailing from Chicago, is rapidly gaining recognition in the industry for her exceptional music and entrancing rhythms. Her recent release, “The More,” has once again brought her into the spotlight, thanks to its profound underlying message and an accompanying music video that translates the song’s narrative into striking visuals.

Speaking of “The More,” she says it’s “ an expression on how life can take two people in two different directions. Leaving to go to college or even to pursue your hopes and dreams. A bittersweet moment as you are trying to grow as a person, and you sometimes have to leave the ones you love and care about in order to do so. Expressing how you don’t want the feelings to “fade away” while you are doing so.”

Produced by Makeba Riddick-Woods from Young Dreamers Agency and Cheo Green from Vector Management, the music video for “The More” beautifully captures the sentiment of holding onto one’s connections while pursuing personal aspirations and dreams. The video conveys a hopeful tone that resonates with the song’s message.

In a recent interview Latrice mentions: “As I am growing, I am understanding that in life, we go through things, and we are not alone. My overcoming this is the fact that I can share my creativity with my fans and to express that we are all in this together in hope that my music inspires the world to overcome any obstacles or challenges that come your way and to keep pushing through it all.”

Jade Latrice’s music style can be described as a blend of R&B, soulful, upbeat, and hip-hop, inspired by artists like Beyoncé, Rihanna, Aaliyah, Ella Mai, Whitney Houston, Brandy, Mary J, and Lauryn Hill. Among her past releases, she holds a special place in her heart for “The More,” which showcases her growth and vulnerability as an artist. The song’s relatable story and interesting narrative make it her personal favorite.
