18 year old Alexandria-born, UK-raised artist OB1 is already turning heads with his talent. His new single “Miss You”, released on July 2nd, 2025, is his most personal and emotional track yet. If you haven’t heard of OB1 before, now’s the time to tune in because this is the kind of song that stays with you long after it ends.
Ob1 is the co-founder of NAYA Music and he’s building a platform for independent musicians, particularly young male artists and female creatives, ensuring fresh talent has a space to thrive. His accolades speak for themselves—BEFFTA Young Musician of the Year and three consecutive Gold medals at the Ascot Music Festival but his vision extends far beyond awards.
With this release, he proves that age has nothing to do with talent. He’s young, but he’s already making music that sounds wise beyond his years.
“Miss You” is a smooth, soulful blend of R&B and Afrobeats, wrapped up in a style OB1 is helping define: PlugnB. It’s fresh, it’s heartfelt, and it’s unlike anything you’ll hear on the charts right now. The moment the beat drops, you’re pulled into a sound that’s both relaxing and deeply emotional. His voice is soft and sincere—he’s not just singing, he’s feeling. You can hear the emotion in every line, and that makes all the difference.
OB1 sings about love and longing in a way that feels honest and real, especially to anyone who’s ever missed someone they care about. The lyric is something you’re able to connect with. The production of this song is clean, and you can tell nothing feels forced or too much. It just flows naturally; chill and unforgettable.
It’s more impressive that the young artist produced this magic while finishing High school and the track “Miss You” forms a part of his upcoming EP (Highschool graduation) which is set to drop in August 2025. This song marks a huge step for him as an artist and as someone who knows where he’s going.
At the moment, MISS YOU is all you need to hear. Whether you’re looking for something to vibe to or just looking to plug yourself to new music, this track answers the call. It’s perfect for late-night listening, long drives, or quiet moments when you need something soft. OB1 has created something special and it’s something that shows his growth, his heart, and the bright future he has in music. He has the voice, the vision and the versatility it takes to be one of the big names in the music industry.
Add Miss You by OB1 to your music playlist and you won’t regret it.
