(Los Angeles, CA) November 29, 2024 - Sometimes, it’s the smallest gestures that leave the biggest impact. This sentiment shines through in Montrel’s latest single, Love That Makes The World Go Round, which officially releases today. With a gentle melody and a compelling message, Montrel’s new song draws on the power of love, empathy, and shared humanity. His soulful storytelling invites listeners to reflect on how even a little kindness can make a world of difference, resonating with the song’s core theme—love that truly connects and heals.
This release marks a new chapter in Montrel’s musical journey. Having dabbled in melodic rap, dance, and classic R&B this year, he steps boldly into country music with this track. Love That Makes The World Go Round draws inspiration from personal experiences and speaks to the universal struggles and triumphs of everyday people. The song emphasizes that a small act of compassion can create ripples across the world.
Inspired by real-life encounters, Montrel channels his passion for music into a song that’s both personal and universal. He recounts a transformative moment meeting a homeless veteran in Killeen, Texas, reflecting on how such encounters test our capacity for kindness. “I believe this was a moment God was testing my spirit,” he shares. Through lyrics like “Love that makes the world go round/ Oh yeah/ We need a little love…” Montrel encourages listeners to reflect on their own ability to give and receive love.
What makes this single particularly special is the professional craftsmanship behind it. Composed by James Ashchoft and produced by Ben Meyers of iKon Music & Entertainment, the song benefits from Montrel’s close collaboration with the production team. The music captures the warmth and sincerity of Montrel’s voice, creating a rich country sound that elevates the song’s narrative. His early experiences in church choirs and the military infuse the track with authenticity, making it feel like an intimate conversation with an old friend.
Love That Makes The World Go Round is the fourth and final single in Montrel’s diverse 2024 lineup. From the introspective Good Intentions to the carefree vibes of Move Your Body, Montrel has shown his willingness to experiment with different genres. His October release, Pretty Lady (A Ballad For), gave fans a taste of classic R&B, while this new track shifts toward a raw, heartfelt country sound. This versatility showcases Montrel’s commitment to exploring music without boundaries, a trait that defines his career.
Montrel’s journey, from singing in church at seven to becoming an independent artist in the North Carolina music scene, is both inspiring and deeply personal. His time in the U.S. Army during Operation Iraqi Freedom has shaped his perspective on resilience and the human spirit. This story comes full circle in his new song, with a melody that uplifts and lyrics that promote unity and empathy.
As a songwriter, Montrel has always prioritized narrative and emotion. He hopes Love That Makes The World Go Round will inspire people to embrace kindness and look beyond differences. It’s a simple message wrapped in a professionally produced country song that leaves a lasting impact.
