Music Notion

Words: A. Murray.

Manchester’s MC Jay Kurdy has delivered something genuinely special with “You Gave Me Music,” a track that refuses to be confined by genre boundaries. Building on the momentum from his previous hit “Wishes, Dreams & Reality,” this collaboration with Rachel Chambers showcases an artist who understands the power of musical fusion.

The track opens with an immediately arresting guitar riff that plants its hook deep from the first seconds. What follows is a masterclass in genre-blending Hip Hop’s rhythmic backbone, Dance music’s infectious energy, and Reggae’s laid-back groove merge into something that feels both familiar and refreshingly new. It’s the kind of track that makes you realize how artificial genre divisions can be when an artist truly understands their craft.

MC Jay Kurdy’s vocal delivery is confident without being overpowering, riding the pocket of the beat with the ease of someone who’s found their musical voice. His flows shift naturally with the track’s dynamics, while Rachel Chambers’ contributions add texture and depth that elevate the collaboration beyond a simple guest appearance. The production maintains clarity across all elements, ensuring that each genre influence has space to breathe while contributing to the cohesive whole.
