Javan Wright – aka J.KAS – brings some SERIOUS flavour and drops his latest heaving visual for track ‘Fever.’ The electro dance banger is taken from his EP ‘Snapchat’ – read the review here.
Back up – before you go, hit the play button on ‘Fever’ and join in the party!
‘Caroline’ definitely hits a raw nerve with London-based singer/songwriter SHAEFRI. With atmospheric soundcapes coupled with the stunningly soft/heartfelt vocals, the latest single tells the story of witnessing someone close hitting the self-destruct button – and feeling powerless to save them.
On her most personal release to date, SHAEFRI explains: “I wrote Caroline the day after I received a phone call saying someone close to me was in hospital after overdosing. I cried the whole day but I was also so angry with her for letting it happen. I was so afraid for her life. I felt guilty for not being there when it had happened, that I couldn’t stop her from doing it, and no longer being able to help. Every time it happens, there’s less of a person left to put back together.”
Following the success of previous releases, ‘Pixelate’, ‘Monster, ‘Rabbit Hole’, and ‘Give It All’, SHAEFRI has seen an influx of support from Clash, DIY, and Hattie Pearson at Radio X, whilst her unique brand of haunting vocals and minimalistic beats have seen sold-out performances at venues, such as The Old Blue Last and Notting Hill Arts Club.
‘Caroline’ is the last installment of her EP ‘Cracks’…have a listen to this powerful piece…
After the cult success of her debut single ‘Rain’, singer, songwriter and composer, Nicki Wells – aka – T U R Y A returns with a brand new single ‘Falling’ released last Friday. This is the second release taken from her forthcoming debut album ‘Ocean’.
‘Falling’ reveals a more honest, darker side compared to the ethereal, bittersweet debut. Steeped in melodic and lyrical poignancy, ‘Falling’ is a musical response to political events in the modern world and a powerful vehicle to express T U R Y A’s feelings.
T U R Y A performs the songs from her debut album ‘Ocean’ for the first time on 29th October, 7.30pm at the Slaughtered Lamb, London. This will be T U R Y A’s debut live performance, seeing a much awaited return to her London roots.
If you’re in the London area, go and show some love! But for now, listen to ‘Falling’.
Following on from the previous two singles from EARTH2TOM‘s diverse hip hop debut album, ‘You’ is the latest single from the forthcoming album ‘ONE’.
Over a warm and jazzy guitar riff with an upbeat vibe, Bristol based emcee and singer Holly Flo Lightly sings a catchy bluesy chorus, and spits some honest and unadulterated raps about past relationships. On ‘You’, expect clever wordplay, impeccable delivery and raw talent.
Holly’s light-hearted vocal content came as a result of the trials and tribulations of guys she’s dated in different countries, and how it inevitably goes wrong. Something many of us can relate to, whether domestic or international!
EARTH2TOM are producers Tom Foolery Beats and Charles the Earthman, who bring smooth dusty boom bap hip hop, with conscious lyrics and a positive vibe….if you haven’t heard of these guys, well here’s your chance to check out their work…
You have great potential… It’s just you guys need to work out what group you want to be – SIMON COWELL.
With that sound advice from one of the most respected music moguls on the planet, brothers Reece, Carl, Aaron and Eden Sakyi – aka SAKYI 4 – are determined to become UK’s next promising R&B group.
For their latest single, ‘Simmer Down,’ the quartet switched it up with rich and bold presence of Afrobeats, fused with their laid-back R&B trademark. Since its release, the music video for the single has cranked up over 8,000 views on Youtube, gaining support from Link Up TV.
Their previous R&B number, ‘Bad As You’, received a seal of approval from SBTV’s Jamal Edwards MBE, clocking up over 31,000 views on YouTube.
Born in North West London into a mixed heritage (Ghanaian and British) , SAKYI 4 were introduced to music from an early age through their parents’ love for soul, pop and African music. The brothers share the same passion for singing and songwriting, crediting Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson as early influences.
Gaining praises from a string of UK’s biggest urban tastemakers, SAKYI 4‘s new offering is just the beginning of their very fruitful journey….check it the video.
