Nelson G is making his mark from Brugg, Switzerland. He creates emotional pop and R&B music that connects with listeners. His new single “Me and Who” came out on March 7, 2025. This song is special for Nelson. He wrote, produced, and recorded it all by himself.

Can you tell us about the inspiration behind the song and what the title means to you?
The inspiration came from that feeling when you really like someone and everything just feels light, dreamy, and exciting. You know, like when it’s just the two of you, and nothing else matters. But at the same time, there’s a little doubt or curiosity, like: is it really just me and you? Or is there someone or something else in your heart or mind? That’s where the title “Me and Who” comes from. It’s playful, but also a little deep if you really think about it. I wanted to capture that fun, romantic energy with a touch of mystery.
How would you describe the sound and style of “Me and Who” compared to your previous work?
It’s definitely more laid-back and feel-good. There’s a lightness to it that makes you want to smile or dance, but it’s also smooth, emotional and mysterious at the same time. The guitar is a big part of the vibe—it gives it a fresh feel. My vocals are layered and soft, Compared to my past songs, this one feels more open and realistic, but still polished. I wanted something people could connect with instantly, whether they’re relaxing, driving, or vibing with someone special.
What was the creative process like for this single? Did you approach it differently than your other songs?
Yeah, for sure. This one was very hands-on—I produced, wrote, sang, and composed everything myself. That gave me full freedom to explore exactly how I wanted the song to sound. I didn’t rush the process. I let the beat, the lyrics, and the mood, that come together naturally. I focused on making each part of the song flow smoothly—the verses, the chorus, the bridge. Everything blends together in a way that feels effortless, but a lot of love went into each detail.
Were there any particular artists or genres that influenced you while creating “Me and Who”?
I wasn’t trying to copy anyone, but I was definitely inspired by that smooth pop and R&B sound. I love music that feels warm and romantic, with a little groove. Artists like Justin Timberlake, The Weeknd, or even old-school Usher inspire me because they mix emotion with style so well. That’s kind of the energy I wanted for “Me and Who”— something soft, catchy, and full of feeling.
Is there a specific message or emotion you hope listeners take away from this song?
I want people to feel good when they hear it. Whether you’re in love, thinking about someone, or just enjoying the vibe, I hope the song brings a smile to your face. A message that I hope people will take away, is that you’ll always see a version of someone, that they want to show off themselves. So you might not see the ”real side” of them, because they might be hiding it, due to personal struggle, insecurity or even embarrassment.
Can you share any interesting stories or challenges from the recording sessions for “Me and Who”?
Yeah, actually! One cool thing is that I recorded a lot of the vocals late at night when I was just vibing in my room. I didn’t plan for those takes to be final, but when I listened the next day, the vocals had this soft, feel that I really liked. I ended up keeping most of them. A real challenge was being my own producer and artist at the same time—it takes a lot of focus. Another challange was also switching from the pre- chorus to the chorus, because I needed a good connection between the two.
Did you collaborate with any other musicians or producers on this track? If so, how did those partnerships shape the final sound?
No, this one was all me. I wanted to create something that felt completely personal, from the music to the lyrics to the mix. It was a bit of a challenge doing everything on my own, but it also helped me stay true to my vision. The final sound is exactly how I heard it in my head when I first started writing.
How does “Me and Who” fit into your artistic journey and evolution as Nelson G?
I think this song shows how much I’ve grown. I’m getting more comfortable with being myself in my music—being playful, romantic, and confident. It’s also a sign of how much I’ve learned technically, being able to produce and arrange everything. “Me and Who” feels like a step forward for me, both creatively and emotionally.
Are there any visual components planned for this release, like a music video or special artwork?
Yes! The artwork is already out, and it really matches the fun, romantic mood of the song. I’m also planning visuals—maybe some tiktok promo videos, that brings the story and vibe of the song to life. I love when visuals help people connect even more with the music.
What’s next for you after this single release? Is “Me and Who” part of a larger project or album?
This is just the beginning. I’m working on more music that fits this style—light, emotional, smooth. Although I don’t see it becoming part of an EP or album later, I’m sure some other projects will be coming. Right now, I’m just focused on sharing good music and building something real, that people can engage in. I also want to go different directions for now, to see, what people like about my artistry.
How have your fans responded to the single so far? Has any reaction particularly surprised you?
The response has been quit good. A lot of people tell me the song makes them feel good, and that they like the vocal mixing and the instrumental. And a lot of fans love the bridge, It always gets people smiling and vibing.
