There’s something extra special when it comes to Fridayy - the singer, not the day. And when you tap into his signature sound and voice? It’s done-done. You’re hooked and the same is true visually speaking. The new ‘Calling 4 You (Freestyle)’ music video doesn’t hold back.

It’s all types of cinematic flexing and brings you in from start to finish. Peep the details and get lost - in a good way - in the visual.

Born Francis LeBlanc, Fridayy learned to play several instruments at a young age — including piano, guitar, drums, trumpet, and bass, at the encouragement of his father, a Haitian immigrant, and musician. Nurturing his love for music and instrumentation in a local church choir, where he’d begin to craft his spacious and evocative sound, a blend of alternative R&B and gospel that was also inspired by his favorite acts PartyNextDoor and The Weeknd. Between 2012 and 2013, Fridayy released a steady stream of music on SoundCloud, and while he worked on his art quietly, Fridayy actively pursued a career in basketball, but an injury derailed his NBA dream. He returned to his first love and set himself back on a path towards music full-time.
