Since the release of her debut single Hillary Banks in 2021, Tāmaki Makaurau-based artist Jujulipps has been making waves in the Aotearoa rap scene with her dynamic flow and unapologetic confidence.

The highly anticipated single, set to be a game-changer, is the first release of her upcoming EP Get That Shot that is set to drop towards the end of the year. Produced by Abraham Kunin and mixed by Luke Berryman, Saucy is a floating cloud of confidence that rains down on whoever hears it.

The single is paired with a music video that puts Jujulipps' confidence on full display. Starting with her sitting on a throne, the video is a visual feast. Saucy is the booster or pick-me-up we all need, reminding us to be unapologetically ourselves and to add a little extra confidence sauce to our daily lives. This banger is a celebration of self-love, empowerment, and the joy that comes from being ourselves.

The Saucy music video (directed by Alex Hargreaves and produced by Caitlin Shinnick) burns with the same confidence and energy of which Jujulipps speaks. She describes the shoot as “an experience I will always remember. I worked closely alongside Mary Adeosun, and spent months connecting potential ideas and then refining these themes. There were many nights of tests and trials with hairdresser Paida Machakaire in order to achieve the elaborate styles presented in the video. With the undeniably talented designer Syndel we merged a look that was not only the embodiment of the track Saucy but is the embodiment of me as an artist. Working with Alex and the whole team was a greatly awakening experience, sharing creative passions with such talented individuals was a true pleasure.”

Performing a national tour with Synthony, hitting the stages of various New Zealand summer festivals (Northern Bass, Cuba Dupa, Cross St. Festival, and a show for the cancelled 2023 Laneway Festival); she showcased her talent at a series of events, including a performance at AUSA Orientation week, and supported US rapper Cakes Da Killa at Auckland's iconic FILTH.

Releasing on 14th of April through New Zealand indie label Bigpop Records, Saucy is the perfect introduction to Jujulipps highly anticipated Get That Shot EP.
