Produced by Winta James and Lamont ‘Monty’ Savory, “Bout Noon” is a laid back love song on a smooth crossover rhythm.
Protoje explains what inspired the track: “I wrote this song on a flight home after an extensive summer of touring,” says Protoje about the groovy new song. “I was looking forward to being home, in my house, with my lady and family. I think everybody can relate to missing someone or something. This song can be something you groove to as you make your way back to that.”
