Following the breakout success of his high-energy debut ‘Lose Control’, rising artist RJ Gibb returns with a striking change of pace on his new single ‘Let It Be You’; a heartfelt ballad that showcases both his artistic maturity and emotional depth.
The son of Robin Gibb CBE of the legendary Bee Gees, RJ steps further into his own artistic light with this release, crafting a song that not only nods to his rich musical heritage but also affirms his place as a singular voice in today’s landscape. Born in Miami Beach in 1983, RJ Gibb has long charted an independent course, founding Golden Age Entertainment as a teenager and collaborating with icons such as Rodney Payne and the Miami Sound Machine. Now, with ‘Let It Be You’, he sharpens his focus even further.
Produced in collaboration with POPSCAR (whose credits include Anne-Marie and Mary J. Blige), the track opens with a delicate piano arrangement, gradually unfolding into a lush swell of strings that perfectly cradles Gibb’s warm, expressive vocals. His delivery is understated yet powerful — effortlessly bridging timeless balladry with modern finesse.
Where Lose Control found RJ dominating dance charts (topping the Music Week Dance Chart and reaching No. 23 alongside DJ Kokiri), ‘Let It Be You’ pivots inward. It’s a song built on raw sentiment, trading pulsing beats for sweeping orchestration and candid lyricism. The result is a resonant meditation on vulnerability, connection, and hope.
Beyond this single, Gibb is setting the stage for a deeply personal full-length album that promises to blend original material with unreleased collaborations featuring his late father, alongside reimagined Bee Gees and Robin Gibb classics. It’s an ambitious project, poised to both honor legacy and carve a bold new chapter.
With ‘Let It Be You’, RJ Gibb not only demonstrates the breadth of his songwriting but firmly cements his status as an artist to watch in 2025 – balancing reverence and reinvention with ease.
