Def jam, meet zae france...

Zae France is one of those rare artists who seems to carry the aura of a star before the rest of the world catches on. Originally from North Carolina and now based in New York City, France has been steadily building his reputation as a silky-voiced R&B talent with undeniable crossover appeal. His music blends the smoothness of traditional R&B with a contemporary edge—pulling in elements of hip-hop, trap soul, and melodic pop without ever losing its core intimacy.

France’s vocal delivery is clean, confident, and effortless, often riding minimal but infectious production. His songs have a way of feeling instantly replayable, built for late nights, city drives, and moments that demand just the right soundtrack. Tracks like What It Do, Call Me Back, and Baby My Way showcase his knack for catchy hooks and polished songwriting, while also proving he can hold his own next to heavy hitters—he’s collaborated with the likes of Ne-Yo and other established names, gaining credibility and reach in the process.

Part of Zae France’s growing momentum comes from his ability to make music that speaks to both traditional R&B fans and younger listeners who crave genre-fluid sounds. His style and persona strike the perfect balance between smooth operator and modern hitmaker, making him a strong candidate for mainstream success without losing underground credibility.

For About to Boom, France represents exactly the kind of artist the platform was built to champion—someone with clear talent, a market-ready sound, and the hunger to push through the noise of the current music landscape. He’s not just making songs; he’s building a brand of smooth, addictive R&B that feels poised to take him from rising name to household recognition. As he continues to drop polished singles and collaborate with industry names, Zae France’s path to a breakout moment feels less like an “if” and more like a “when.”
