Atlanta’s rising R&B star Jai’Len Josey has just released her latest single, “Housewife”, and fans are already buzzing. Out now as of February 20, 2026, the track marks another exciting step in the singer-songwriter’s journey with Def Jam Recordings.
Josey has been building her career steadily. She first gained attention with her rich vocals and deep storytelling on projects like her 2023 Southern Delicacy EP and more recent releases, including “New Girl” and “Freak”, which pushed her into new sonic territory and kept listeners coming back for more.
What sets “Housewife” apart is its bold title and confident energy. The song finds Josey exploring new themes with her signature soulful voice. Early listeners online are already calling it a “bop” and praising her talent as she continues to evolve her sound.
Lyrically, “Housewife” feels intimate and reflective. Lines like “Oh, different I feel different / Something’s changed about me” suggest a story of personal change and self-realization. Whether it’s about shifting roles, expectations, or inner growth, the lyrics aim to capture the emotional complexity of relationships and identity in a way that many listeners will find relatable.
Josey’s talent has roots beyond her solo work — she co-wrote Ari Lennox’s hit “Pressure” and has a background that includes Broadway performances and deep songwriting craft.
Expect “Housewife” to be a track that bridges soul and strength, giving fans more of Josey’s honest voice and big-hearted emotion as she continues toward her highly anticipated full-length project, Serial Romantic.
