Ciara has been puttin’ on for the ATL for quite some time and has enjoyed longevity that many didn’t expecte her to achieve. This new collaboration with Nicki Minaj definitely has the makings of another chart topper for the down south diva. Cheers
Self proclaimed electronic soul duo Quadron put out their sophomore album this year called Avalanche. Coco O is lookin pretty good these days! Here’s their single “Hey Love.”
A up and coming talented duo from California, Amarante has a great mellow folk sound with melodic vocals.”The Manic” is from their new album “Udana Prana”. I think this song will stay in my daily playlist for a while.
Here’s a really fun band from Exeter… no not Exeter, CA but Exeter, Devon UK. Good sound and solid old school grooves. Cheers!
Bad Rabbits is one of my favorite bands. Old school sensibilities, mixed with rock grooves and smooth RnB vocals. These guys are highly underrated. Check out their latest single!
Was just enjoying some of Allen’s music today and realized some of you might not know who he is. Never judge a book by it cover is proven in full force when you listen to the soul music that comes out of this man’s mouth. I had the pleasure of catching a small crowd acoustic session that he did at last years Outside Lands show at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. I couldn’t help but stand there mesmerized, he was and is amazing. FYI Allen started singing at age three in church because he was the son of a preacher man but didn’t start singing soul until he was a teenager.
New video from Rihanna featuring Mikky Ekko off of her “Unapologetic” album.
I don’t know much about the newly formed group Dead Times, except they describe themselves as alternative R n’B. I have never heard that description of a group before but after listening to “Feel” I am definitely looking forward to future music.
With speculation on the actual title of her next album, Rihanna has given us the first song, “Diamonds”. 7 Wonders may be the title of the album, but for now who cares… we know that she has an album in progress and we got some new material, what else can we ask for?!? And watch for tour dates soon, for next years tour. Listen to the gorgeous Rihanna’s new one below.
