Quelle Rox – “Miss Ya Body”

Recorded during quarantine, Brooklyn-based Latinx singer, songwriter and producer Quelle Rox (Rocky) releases her latest single “Miss Ya Body”.

After graduating from NYU, Rocky began her musical transformation. Initially drawing her sound from a bedroom-pop rich cosmos, she began concocting her potion of purples and blues, flowers and stars. From that 300 square foot room, Quelle Rox was born.

“I made this song during quarantine and shot the video in my room, edited by my very talented friend Kelli Mcguire. The track puts a focus on the physicality of a man by overtly acknowledging the sexy-time parts of the relationship as the sole reason for missing them”, she explains.

“The male gaze constantly objectifies women, so this song is kind of a role reversal, in that a woman is directly stating that the only thing they are missing from the relationship is the sexual part. It’s the whole idea of men only ‘wanting one thing’ except from a female perspective – because women have needs too. It’s an up-tempo track that I think anyone can vibe out to this summer and celebrate who they are and feel empowered by their own desires. Especially during quarantine, I think we all miss someone’s body right? Sometimes you just want a body.”

Exploring heartbreak, loneliness and a yearning for unrequited love, Quelle Rox describes her music as “soundtracks catered to dreamy, nostalgic memories of the past with a bad bitch twist.”
