That right there's the sentiment expressed as Nina peaks with the sort of riveting chorus Prince has tried and failed to come out with for decades now, though the overriding sensation to be derived from this chugging spoken word oeuvre from Neneh Cherry and Nathaniel Hall (better known as insurgent Brooklynite Afrika Baby Bam ) is one of snug collaboration. The Jungle Brother brings a sagacious world-weariness to the piece – one incidentally pieced together by none other than Kieran Hebden – as he eulogises the recurrent greatness of life. "It always keeps me smiling" he assures in a gravelled tone [...]
By Rob Crozier April 17, 2013 Resident Records has been keeping music lovers in Brighton happy since 2004 and was opened with love in an attempt to give music buyers of the town a record store with soul. That they have more than succeeded in their mission is proved by the fact that they were voted 'England's Favourite Indie Record Shop' and won Music Week's 'Indie Shop of the Year' award in 2011. The wonderful, award-winning store, fast approaching a decade on the scene, is now gearing [...]

With her debut EP back in 2010, Lulu James joined the ever-growing movement of UK artists who are experimenting with the boundaries of R&B, soul, pop, and everything in between. Inspired by the likes of Jamie xx , Gil Scott Heron , James Blake , and Jamie Woon , James has comfortably dubbed her work as 21 st century soul and the title couldn’t be more fitting. Her most recent piece “Closer” just recently premiered on Annie Mac ’s Weekend Roundup on BBC Radio 1 and is set [...]

Long ago the clock washed midnight away Bringing the dawn Oh God, I must be dreaming Time to get up again And time to start up again Pulling on my socks again Should have been asleep When I was sitting there drinking beer And trying to start another letter to you Don't know how many times I dreamed to write again last night Should've been asleep when I turned the stack of records over and over So I wouldn't be up by myself Where did the night go?

[Lunice Fermin Pierre II, a.k.a. Lunice] Montreal's own Lunice Fermin Pierre II fashioned an hour long mix for BBC Radio 1Xtra as of late. The result is what followers might expect, which is a good thing; a creative concoction of cranked 8082s, cheeky melodies, and rattling high-hats. A few tracks to look out for include: Jamie xx and Gil Scott Heron 's NY Is Killing Me , Kaytranada 's Holy Hole Inna Donut , and a freshly pressed TNGHT manicure of [...]

Angel Haze had a prolific year dropping no fewer than three mix tapes in 2012. You would be forgiven for assuming this abundance of material would also result in a lot of filler but the 'Voice EP' as well as the recently release 'Classicks', complete with her stark take on Eminem's "Cleaning Out My Closet", [...]

Soul music is undeniably sweet. Wether you're heartbroken or recently in love, pensive or lighthearted, angry or sad, soul music can articulate the human emotion in such an elegant way. One of the most powerful and influential permutation of music, today you can find traces and remnants of soul is most every genre, from house to instrumental hip-hop. Depending on what part of the country you're in, it may or may not be winter yet. In California, rain clouds have been ubiquitous for the past few weeks, a welcome sign of change. This Friday, enjoy five classic soul [...]
Our good friends over at Disco Demons have done a tribute re-work of Gil Scott-Heron's 'I'm New Here', here's what Disco Demons said about the re-work: "Here's a very personal tribute to who I believe was one of the most remarkable persons of our time - not only in a musical way: Gil Scott-Heron. The track is mainly based on "I'm New Here", but I used samples from six other tracks of the self-titled 2010 album, including "Where Did The Night Go", "New York Is Killing Me", "Running" and three [...]
Ain't it always the way? Follow where Damon leads, and not only do you oft find yourself penned in against a nearby HSBC storefront by his customary array of Albarn-alikes, but they that impatiently await anxiously chatter of rare Blur tour tees and other inessential memorabilia. At least it's nowhere near gelid enough for it to be blue-lipped natter, as it's remarkably mild for an October eve way out west in the revered cultural polymath's native endz. Going against the grain, however, although there may be many here to fawn over Albarn he's not exactly the figurehead of what has [...]
Bonito mashup el que nos ha dejado The 83rnd con este tema de título “New York”, resultado de la mezcla del remix que Jamie xx le hizo al clásico de Gil Scott-Heron “New York Is Killing Me” con el tema “New York” de Angel Haze , tema estrella de su "Reservation" .
Pour un réveil en douceur, nous vous proposons ce matin de dépoussiérer les vieux vinyls de papa. Et le choix est vite fait lorsqu’on ressort des vieux titres de Gil-Scott Heron , chanteur et poète engagé des années 70-80. On lui attribue la plupart du temps la paternité du Rap avec sa façon de chanter en « spoken word » (sorte de poésie orale). Natif de Chicago, Gil-Scott Heron évoque sans cesse dans ses textes les problèmes sociaux et politiques que connaissait son pays à l’époque. Arrêt sur son morceau “ We Almost [...]
