Song of the Day: Rachel Marie – High (ft. John Lass)

Rachel Marie

A great start to the week: today’s song is High by singer/songwriter RACHEL MARIE.

Singing/song-writing and performing are lifelong ambitions for the 22 year old from Washington DC . Known as “LM” or “Lilmaria”, RACHEL MARIE started out singing with her family at church and performed in art grade schools.

In 2012, the Jacksonville music and business graduate released a sensual R&B/neo soul number  Wanna Feel It (ft. MAXXX FLAIR). So there you have it – have a listen to High. This track definitely deserves a place on the song of the day hot spot, as it features that old school R&B/neo soul groove with Rachel’s effortlessly gliding vocals.

If this track puts you on a high, then check out her other effort, Wanna Feel It on Bandcamp.

Review: L.O.V.E – D Scales

D scales LOVE

1. Beautiful
2. Fallin’ in Love
3. Let Me Love You
4. So Far Gone
5. Vain
6. Perfect Lady (Feat. J5)
7. Real Love

Hands up if you really miss that real old school R&B? Come on, raise does hands right now – I know there are thousands of you out there (me Included!). Well I have a real treat for you: let me introduce to you D.SCALES and his latest EP L.O.V.E (short for Language Of Various Emotions).

Released last month, this seven-track album featured some seriously slick after hours productions in which the multi-talented artist from Alabama perfectly delivers heart-melting lyrics in that coca-rich classic soulful vocals. BeautifulFallin’ In Love and Vain are an absolute must listen for all you R&B heads, as they are strictly for the bedroom department (if you know what I mean!?!). After listening to L.O.V.ED.SCALES puts me in the mind of a young BRIAN MCKNIGHT.

This is a little short for a review on NEW LEASE MUSIC, but with some EPs, the music speaks for itself – and this is one of them. So before you log off, listen to one of the tracks from the album, Vain. #Stunning!

L.O.V.E is available for purchase on iTunes.

Star Song: U and Only U – NinoWes

NinoWes

Today’s song is U and Only U by Californian raised singer/songwriter NINOWES. The track was released in May.

After using the famous Jerk Movement as a platform, the Ohio born upcomer was more than ready to emerge as R&B solo artist. He had his first taste of success with his track, Bite Me (Bitch I Am A Mac Apple Bite Me) which has over 3 million plays virally by the group which he co founded called Breakfast Club. More recently he won an award for best Male R&B at the first 818 awards in September.

This guy is no one trick pony: he also produced hip hop songs for acts including MANN, KIDS IN THE HALL and KHLEO THOMAS – but R&B remains his first love. Well just have a listen to U and Only U. This track oozes pure class and it certainly justifies his award for Best Male R&B.

NINOWES has more music in the pipeline, so keep it locked on NEW LEASE MUSIC
