Los Angeles, CA (February 23, 2023) - Today, EMMY® and GRAMMY® Award-winning singer, songwriter, actress, and producer Jasmine Cephas Jones graces the music scene with her shimmering new single and accompanying music video, "Baby I Can't Give You Up." The breathtaking ballad, produced in collaboration with Sassy Tipping and Jodie Elliot, features sparse piano melodies that underpin Jasmine's soulful vocals while bold percussion lifts the final crescendo to the heavens.
In "Baby I Can't Give You Up," Jasmine invites listeners into an intimate and powerful exploration of love. "I wanted to write something that felt intimate, slow, and powerful," she shares. "It's a classic pop/soul love song that's dedication to love in all its forms - love for yourself, love for your support system, or love for your partner."
Directed by Jasmine Cephas Jones herself, the music video follows Jasmine on an introspective stroll through the streets of London. Flashbacks to special moments with friends and family are seamlessly woven into the visual narrative, offering viewers a front-row seat to Jasmine's journey of self-reflection and love.
