Met this artist at a New Years Eve party. Super chill and cool for someone who’s wrtititen hit songs for the likes of Rihanna and Melanie Fiona! “Intentions” is her new single. Check out a couple of her older releases after the jump.
Prince is the homie from time.He was on our 2014 This One Goes To Eleven… I’m still mad that he never propeorly relelased this track (no Soundcloud, YouTube, deleted from Spotify etc. Why??!) but I’m posting it anyway ‘cos good music deserves to be acknowledged and championed. His new single “Mass-Uh Munny” just dropped this week also. Check it out HERE: Spotify | Apple
We’re long standing fans of Keita Juma around these parts. He was featured on our 2014 compialtion album, This One Goes to Eleven… twice (on the track, “YRWEONTHISBEACH?” and the track, “Look” that also featured the homie, Brendan Philip).
Earlier this month, KJ (as he was formerly known) released his newest full length project, Young Zen Mode.
KJ has always been ahead of his time creatively. Splitting his time between living between here and Bristol, England only seems to allowed him the space to further grow beyond his original hip-hop/rapper roots into a much more expansive experientimental and alternative, yet still engaging, electronic sound.
In many ways, music has finally caught up to what he’s been doing for a while now so hopefully 2019 will be his moment where the critical and fan attention and support falls on him too.
