“‘Hardway’ is about putting in the work and being ready for your opportunities. When it’s time to hit the ‘opp,’ you want it to swish. You miss every shot you don’t take. It takes hard work and practice to hit the ‘opp,’ but it’s worth it. If you want results, you gotta put in the work.” – Jill Valentyne explained 

‘Hardway’ finds Jill Valentyne encouraging listeners to believe that their hard work will eventually pay off. Whatever you choose to do in this life, give it your all, and your harvest will be abundantly tremendous in appearance.

HARDWAY,  an inspiring tune, contains a go-out-there-and-get-it mentality and melodic vocal tone that will resonate well with fans of Muni Long, Jhené Aiko, and Summer Walker. The vibey tune possesses thudding drum-laden instrumentation bursting with urban R&B and contemporary trap elements. Furthermore, “Hardway” will be featured on Jill Valentyne’s upcoming EP, entitled, “GPS.” Also, the song follows hot on the heels of her “Don’t Lose Your Sh*t” single featuring Dariah Flame.
