Sunny Jorge’s “Murder She Wrote” Explores Luxury, Respect, and Personal Transformation

Sunny Jorge’ s latest track “Murder She Wrote” feels like a turning point in his career. The New Jersey artist—best known for his poetic roots—delivers a swaggering, self-assured anthem alongside the legendary Fetty Wap, blending luxurious themes with a message of deep respect for women.
