Song of the Day: Coming and Going – Amaal

AMAAL‘s  latest single, ‘Coming and Going’ is a silky, lustrous number, reflecting the experience of being in love can sometimes have equal parts of highs and lows and the recognition that the bad often doesn’t negate the good.

‘Coming and Going’ is the second single off the rising Somali-Canadian R&B artist’s upcoming debut EP, set to be released this summer and is the follow-up to the groundbreaking ‘Not What I Thought, which earned her the Apple Canada’s best new artist of the week title in February.’ The visuals for ‘Not What I Thought,’ directed by creative Sean Brown (best known for his work with Daniel Caesar), is quickly approaching one million views.

EP Review: Intermission Vol.1 – Ricardo Williams

The build-up to the release of RICARDO WILLIAMS‘ EP, ‘Intermissions Vol.1′ has been PHENOMENAL, especially when it comes to the Come Over challenge – one of the singles from the collection – which offers different remixes of the original. More recently, R&B queen Teedra Moses graced her soothing vocals on the afterhours joint.

Now, finally, the big man of UK R&B has graced his presence with the eight track set, released via BBC 1Xtra DJ Ace’s label Recordbox late last month.

After the introduction, a very familiar mist of afterhours sets the tone with Williams’ powerful vocal instrumental effortlessly piercing through the bed of feathery soundscapes, starting with the original version of ‘Come Over’. That misty and airy tones continue on all the way through with tracks, ‘He Ain’t Me’ and ‘All I Need’.

In just a few years, It has been great to witness such a journey where a upcoming homegrown talent, who (in my opinion) exceeded his mission on pushing REAL R&B to the forefront, to flourished into one of the most promising R&B powerhouses to excite, not just his UK hometown, but across the globe.
