November 9th, 2023 — Los Angeles, CA — Rising R&B songstress, Rosemarie, has teamed up with award winning rapper and fellow Los Angeles artist Roddy Ricch for new song, “Is It Real” paired with an equally emotive music video — watch below, or click here. The song is a powerful duet that plays to Rosemarie’s strength in storytelling and melody work while Roddy’s impassioned vocal work rounds out the song. Speaking on the meaning behind the song, Rosie shares:
“The making of “Is It Real” with Roddy was a special and serendipitous experience. Our artistry as individuals is boundless — and to me, this song is a beautiful intersection of them both. Collaborating with such a giant who I am inspired by, definitely made me want to push my pen, creativity and vocal production further…and I’m extremely proud of what we made.” — Rosemarie
Directed by Ashley Kember, the music video intrigues as it evolves — showcasing the pair in a sprawling Los Angeles home trading verse for verse of their love story… or did they?
The collaborative effort appears on Rosemarie’s Rock Paper Scissors Recut, a deluxe EP, which came out in tandem with the release of “Is It Real” single and music video. Alongside the Roddy Ricch assisted track, Rosemarie also shares new tracks “Unfortunate,” “Same Page” and worked with rising Los Angeles, CA rapper Kalan.FrFr on “Drop Me.” Rock Paper Scissors EP was first released earlier this year which bore goosebump inducing “Breaking,” (the acoustic performance of which has over a million views on Youtube) as well as, English-Spanish, reggaeton inspired track “Aprovecha.” Listen to the eclectic body of work via:
