JERUB LANCIA ‘LET IT GO’ – LA VOCE CHE HA CONQUISTATO ANCHE MADONNA!

Following a standout run of performances at The Great Escape and a wave of critical acclaim, JERUB—one of British music’s most compelling new voices—today releases his soul-stirring new single, “Let It Go.”

This follow-up to last month’s much-praised single “Deeper” continues his meteoric rise, bolstered by a glowing endorsement from none other than Madonna, who hailed his “fantastic voice.”

Born in Nigeria and raised in Nottingham, JERUB fuses pop and soul with stirring emotional depth, creating a signature sound that resonates across borders and generations. “Let It Go” sees him at his most vulnerable and arresting, navigating intimate themes with serene strength and clarity.

“I wrote this from a place of quiet reckoning,” says JERUB. “We all hold on to things we know deep down aren’t good for us—old versions of ourselves, fear, disappointment, expectations that were never really ours. Sometimes it’s a relationship; other times it’s a mindset or a memory.”

He continues: “Let It Go” is that internal tug-of-war—the push and pull between knowing you need to move on and not quite knowing how. The chorus is me talking to myself. Sometimes, you have to be the one to say the hard thing to your own heart.”

In just two years with Elevate Music, JERUB has amassed over 75 million streams, released two acclaimed EPs, and earned major support from global radio and streaming platforms. He’s headlined sold-out tours and opened for JP Cooper, Tom Walker, Victor Ray, Nick Mulvey, and more across the UK and Europe.

His magnetic presence has also earned him prime-time TV slots—including BBC1’s King’s Coronation Concert with Pete Tong’s Heritage Orchestra, Children In Need, Comic Relief, and Who Dares Wins Awards—cementing his reputation as a rising star with mainstream appeal.

Listeners frequently compare JERUB’s heartfelt songwriting to Tom Grennan, Teddy Swims, Myles Smith, and Lewis Capaldi—a testament to his rare ability to translate personal truth into universal anthems.

With his biggest live chapter ahead, The Wonder Years Tour will take JERUB across 14 cities in the UK, Ireland, and Europe this November and December—promising emotional release, electric energy, and a new era of fearless expression.
