Morgan Hill’s own Billy Vega is set to capture the hearts of music lovers everywhere with his latest original single, “Addicted.” This exciting track is a beautiful blend of old-school R&B inspiration and modern sound, promising to deliver a unique late-night summer feel that music fans have been waiting for.
Billy Vega draws strong influence from legendary R&B artists like Keith Sweat and New Edition, whose classic sounds shaped the music Billy grew up listening to. With “Addicted,” Billy wanted to create a song that honours those old-school vibes while adding a fresh, modern twist. His goal was to make a track that stands apart from the common summer dance music, focusing instead on slow, soulful late-night moods perfect for summer evenings.
The recording process for “Addicted” was special and creative, taking place in both Newark, New Jersey, and San Jose, California. One of the unique elements of this track is the use of a special effects combination in the chorus that imitates the sound of a VOCODER, but without using an actual VOCODER device. This technique gives the song a distinctive and fresh sound that sets it apart from other productions.
The song is designed to provide the perfect soundtrack for those intimate, late-night summer moments that require a more soulful and sophisticated sound than typical summer dance tracks. Billy’s approach offers listeners an alternative to the high-energy dance music that dominates summer playlists, instead providing smooth, sensual vibes perfect for evening relaxation and connection.
With “Addicted,” Billy Vega offers a rare late-night summer track that combines soul, heart, and a polished modern touch. This release is sure to make waves and earn a lasting place on playlists for those warm summer nights.
Billy Vega will be showcasing “Addicted” in a special live performance scheduled for August, where he will be joined by his vocal coach for what promises to be an unforgettable musical experience. This performance will give audiences their first opportunity to experience the captivating energy of “Addicted” in a live setting.
Billy Vega’s careful attention to phrasing and vocal tone ensures that every note is delivered with emotion and depth. His soulful voice brings the lyrics to life, making sure the music is not just heard but truly felt by listeners.
