Built on smooth guitar layers, chill percussion and an airy, atmospheric soundscape, Yoni’s latest single ‘Runaway’ is a sleek and soulful dive into the turbulence of love at its breaking point. Backed by a laidback, mid-tempo groove, this R&B-laced track explores the toxic cycle of falling out and making up, with the inevitable, impending end hovering in the back of your mind. It’s a pattern that many will be able to recognise in their own lives, whether that be in the past or present. That raw emotionality is wrapped in a sleek production that draws on alt-R&B and West Coast soul sensibilities.

Gliding through this confessional narrative, Yoni’s voice is both tender and resolute. It feels deeply personal, as if the artist is whispering his secrets into the dark with only the moody R&B melodies for company. ‘Runaway’ is a true slow-burner where each introspective lyric, cinematic texture and purposeful pause gradually reveal this songwriter’s inner world. It’s not often you find an artist like Yoni who is so clearly committed to building connection through genuine, emotive and immaculate storytelling. ‘Runaway’ is an unforgettable introduction.
