#FMSpotlight: Luh Kel – “I Wish” (Watch)

Watch: Luh Kel – “I Wish”

Fresh off the heels of his albums, L.O.V.E. and L.O.V.E. (Deluxe), Luh Kel is back on the R&B charts with his single “I Wish.” 

Although Valentine’s Day revolves around paying kindness forward and showing affection, Luh Kel uses the national holiday as momentum to right his wrongs. Sonically, “I Wish” samples Ray J’s “One Wish” and emphasizes the soft piano loop. 

From the beginning, Luh Kel admits to playing the field and explains why he did. The truth may hurt, but Luh Kel is laying it out on the table so that he can win his wifey back. 

I tried to tell you how I feel, but I stumbled on my words,” he sings with a velvety register. “Know I was tripping when I did it, but she put me first/But I’m just tryna’ make it work.

It’s apparent that he regrets the decision he made, but what matters is that he’s trying to do the right thing. 

As the song carries on, Luh Kel reflects on what he should’ve done as their relationship gets more robust. He says he would do everything he’s supposed to, mend her broken heart, and get to know her a bit better before going all in. Elsewhere, the R&B artist confesses that he should’ve been more attentive to her soul, body, and mind. All-in-all, Luh Kel didn’t want them to split. He’s hoping to reconcile with his woman so that he can make it work once more. 

The St. Louis native has more than proven that he’s forever emerging as an R&B megastar. Throughout his career, he’s collaborated with Quando Rondo, Lil Tjay, and PnB Rock. Subsequently, he’s earned spots on the Billboard Hot R&B / Hip-Hop Songs charts, Platinum certification by R.I.A.A. for his breakout single “Wrong” and two Gold certificates with “BRB” and “Pull Up,” Currently, Luh Kel is prepping to take this year by storm.
