Either something is very wrong with the world, or maybe, just maybe, Jai Paul just released his debut album online. Who knows, but it's here, it really is. continue reading >>]]> text/html 2011-04-23T17:21:28+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3388142/listendownload-jai-paul-btstu-official-edit/


This song came out in 2007 and is only just getting an official release. Well, when I say it came out 2007, what I mean is that's when Jai Paul (Jay Paul) recorded the demo and presumably passed it around for some peeps to hear, but nothing really happened until the tail end of 2009/start of 2010 when some blogs started posting it, then radio DJs like Zane Lowe got a hold of it and started playing it, and now....over a year later the dude has signed to XL Records and has released an [...]]]> text/html 2011-02-01T23:33:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3163660/jai-paul/


One of the hot tips for 2011, Rayners Lane lad Jai Paul produces a feral garage with an chiffon-soft centre: his tingly vocals the eye of a distorted,pounding storm.

Well now that's all gone and has been replaced with a short message from him and two flashing images that follow it; Air Force, and XL Recordings. Yup, looks like the dude got signed, which isn't surprising since I didn't hear a single bad thing said about the guy.

He labels himself on his MySpace page as "Pop/Hip-Hop/Indie", but Jai Paul is so much more than that. That only touches the surface of his sound which is one of the most exciting things I've heard in a long time. Hailing from Rayners Lane in London he currently only has demos, most of them short, but they show a potential in music progression that may only be matched (in the mainstream) by M.I.A., Animal Collective, and dare I say Radiohead.
