Johannesburg-born emerging recording artist, Ross Jack has unveiled his music video for his stunning new single, "Fear the Rush," which is the lead single from his forthcoming album, 'Self Medicated' due out Friday, April 28th via Radikal Records. The "Fear the Rush" music video is an artistic piece of work that portrays an urban adventure that has a dark and eerie twist. The music video, which features Ross Jack and model/actress Kelly Mc Lennan, was directed by Ryan Kruger. The music video debuted on Vevo today, Thursday, April 13, 2017.

"Fear the Rush" is the perfect introduction to Ross Jack's unique sound that combines soulful vocals with brooding, atmospheric instrumentals that showcase the melodic hip-hop that propelled him to the top of the charts in South Africa. The single was co-written by Arrow Benjamin, the co-writer and artist on Naughty Boy's 2015 Top 10 smash hit, "Runnin' (Lose It All)", which also featured music icon Beyoncé, and was produced by Pete Boxsta (Petite Meller, James Arthur).

The forthcoming album, 'Self Medicated,' is a perfect blend of Ross Jack's influences, taking the best sounds of Rap, RnB, Soul, Trip-Hop, and Pop to produce a unique style he refers to as "Stoner Pop." Each track sees Ross Jack taking his creativity to the next level as his charismatic performance on the mic adapts to the album's wide-range of production styles. Ross Jack succeeds by continuously blurring the lines between musical genres, creating an album that would appeal to fans of the electro-pop sounds of The Weeknd and the smoked-out, swagger-filled bars of Mac Miller alike. Backed by lush production and massive hooks, 'Self Medicated' establishes Ross Jack as an artist to watch in 2017.

"Fear the Rush" is available along with an additional US single mix. The single is available for digital purchase on Bandcamp, Google Play, and iTunes. It is also available to stream on all major streaming platforms.

Ross Jack's forthcoming album 'Self Medicated' is currently available for pre-order on Amazon, iTunes, and Google Play.
