Joneaux's New Single "Eat You Up" Will Have You Dancing All Night

If you haven’t heard of Joneaux yet, it’s time to get familiar because the Johannesburg-based artist is bringing the heat with his latest single, “Eat You Up.” Released on March 14th, the track is an energetic, danceable anthem that’s already making waves, landing on not one, but three Spotify editorial playlists, including the iconic New Music Friday. If that doesn't already tell you how good this song is, we’re about to break it down for you.

A Late Bloomer Turned Dance Floor King

Joneaux, born Jonathan Nunes, is a perfect example of the saying "better late than never." While his love for music has always been there, it wasn't until later in life that he decided to dive into making his own. In fact, his first stint with singing was a bit of a rocky start—he got kicked out of the prep school choir before his first performance. Ouch! But that didn’t stop him. Flash forward to Matric (the South African equivalent of senior year), and Joneaux was faced with a big challenge: singing “History” by One Direction in the school’s major production. Despite the fear of it all, the performance went off without a hitch, and the praise and encouragement he received ignited a fire within him.

This pivotal moment planted the seed for what would eventually become a full-blown music career. Fast forward to last year, when he teamed up with his close friend Timothy Drew to create his debut electronic dance track, “Before The Sun Sets.” The experience was so much fun that Joneaux found himself hooked. Gone were the doubts and fears, replaced by the joy of creating something that could make people feel good. And he wasn’t done yet.

"Eat You Up" – The Track That Will Get You Moving

Now, with “Eat You Up,” Joneaux is stepping up his game even more. The song brings all the right vibes—infectious beats, catchy lyrics, and a sense of fun that’s absolutely impossible to resist. It’s the kind of track that you can already picture blasting at a summer party or dancing in your living room on a Friday night. But what makes “Eat You Up” truly special is the energy behind it. You can hear the joy and excitement in every note, and it’s clear that Joneaux is having the time of his life with this music.

In fact, this fun-loving energy is a big part of Joneaux's whole approach to his music. Despite starting a little later than most artists, his journey has been fueled by a love for the creative process and a commitment to pushing through self-doubt. His passion for music shines through in every track he releases, and “Eat You Up” is no exception.

What’s Next for Joneaux?

With “Eat You Up” making it onto major playlists and getting attention worldwide, it’s safe to say that Joneaux is only just getting started. He has seven more songs lined up for release in 2025, and we can’t wait to hear what’s next. From his start in the school choir to his debut single, Joneaux’s story is one of perseverance, growth, and a whole lot of fun.

If you’re looking for a new artist to get behind, Joneaux is definitely one to watch. His energy is contagious, his music is infectious, and with the momentum he’s building, 2025 is going to be his year.
