This upbeat single is the quarantine pick me up that we all need right now. Cloud 9 tells the story of what could have been from a failed love story. The style of the music imagines all of the possibilities of the lovers and how they could have been on “cloud nine” instead of “in misery”. The somber meaning of the lyrics becomes uplifted by the continuous musical and instrumental beats in the background produced by Afrojack and Chico Rose. The cheery flow shows the happiness they could have had, and the lyrics by Jeremih’s impressive voice shows the real sadness they feel. The mix of the two create a truly remarkable sound and expression of past love.
“When I heard the track come together for the first time, I knew we had created something that felt like we’re on Cloud 9” – Afrojack
“I feel honored to work with 2 legends, feels like we’re in Cloud 9” – Chico Rose
