Born, raised and residing in the Cayman Islands, Josh Pearl presents “Emotional”, the new Taylor King-produced single from Pearl’s forthcoming EP Lost In Eldorado. Jamaican singer Mavado can be seen cosigning Pearl in the music video for his 2015 single “My Homies” (watch) which still receives radio play in the Caymans. Pearl writes and directs most of his own music videos, including “Night Rider” (watch), the first single from Lost In Eldorado, shot in Los Angeles, and “First Mill” (watch), shot in China. In 2014 Pearl also wrote, directed, and edited A Savside Story, which was premiered in the Caymans to a sold-out theatre audience back to back on the same night (watch). Pearl says the inspiration for “Emotional” came after he relocated temporarily to Los Angeles. “I felt like no matter how much I would show and prove to people how serious I was about everything I was doing, I still never got that same respect back. From being betrayed by a radio station back home that I built years of a relationship with, who falsely advertised my name at a event that I had no consent to, to someone I had love for not feeling the same way as I did towards our relationship. It all melted into me letting all of my emotions go onto this song, which is something that was new for me.” |
