Jermain returns with fresh single after nine-year break

After nearly a decade away from the spotlight, Windhoek-born singer Jermain De Voss, who now performs under the stage name Jermain, has returned to music with the release of his debut single ‘Take Me Away’. The single was released yesterday across major streaming platforms.

Originally known to fans as Jermain Casper, the Khomasdal-raised artist first made waves in the local music scene with his heartfelt R&B and pop sound.

Known for his soulful storytelling and emotionally driven lyrics, he built a fanbase with songs such as ‘Love Me’ and ‘Game Over’, as well as his album ‘Ninety Six 96’. His music also received radio play on several local stations, positioning him as one of the promising voices in Namibia’s contemporary R&B scene.

However, at the height of his early momentum, Jermain stepped away from the industry to focus on his studies and personal development. Now, nine years later, he has returned with a renewed vision and a refined sound.

New era

Reintroducing himself simply as Jermain, the independent artist is entering a new era that blends Afrobeats, pop and R&B while staying true to the raw emotion and storytelling that first defined his music. His single 'Take Me Away' marks the beginning of this new chapter.

“This release represents growth, reflection and a fresh start,” Jermain says. “Taking time away helped me rediscover who I am, both as a person and as an artist.”

With the global rise of Afrobeats and the continued evolution of pop and R&B, Jermain hopes his music will connect with listeners both locally and internationally. As an independent artist, he is now focused on building his career authentically while sharing music that reflects his journey.

'Take Me Away' is now available on major streaming platforms, marking Jermain’s long-awaited return to the music scene.

As he steps back into the spotlight, the singer says he hopes both long-time supporters and new listeners will join him for this exciting new chapter.
