AND Finally last but by no means least...............................What ever the hell you want insert song right here. Finish 2012 off anyway you want to and keep it moving and grooving in 2013!
Its been an interesting and somewhat illuminating year. Heres hoping 2013 will bigger, badder and better! Peace out 2012 it has been shamazing and emosh lol
Cody Chesnutt- Till I met thee. You know when you just want some of that old school R&B and neo soul? Yeah he is your guy. I saw him on the Jools Holland show and I loved the live performance of the song.
Gabrielle Aplin- Power of love. Covering Frankie goes to Hollywood for The John Lewis Christmas advert her ethereal tones makes it really memorable. Having been around on Youtube etc for the last few years, it is rumoured she tweeted John Lewis into submission regarding her doing a song for them and after a while an agency got it touch with her. Goes to show the power of social media and slight stalking....lol
Kyra ft Cashtastic- Good love. It is very nice to see some good UK talent and yup all them faces that look familiar are lol
Solange- Losing you. I usually yawn at her attempts but I freaking love this song and loved it more when I saw the video. Filmed in South Africa the idea seems to me to be about capturing a glimpse of humanity against a back drop of adversity. The scenes really brought those people to life. For anyone who knows their music you will see it was heavily influenced by elements of Janet Jackson's got til its gone video.
It's that time again, it's Monday and the hype hype isha must once again begin!
Emeli Sande - read all about it part 3. I love Emelis voice and album, honestly I prefer her version to the Professor Green song so yeah.
AlunaGeorge- Just a touch. I heard about this duo late last year but my friend Nikki (shout outs lol) turned me back on to them again. Having met through Myspace this duo can honestly do no wrong. Alunas voice is very unique and has a child like quality which clashes nicely with her lyrics. While George knows his way around a beat and synthesiser and throws wicked R'n'B/ electronic textures in. Their debut single Analyser/ We Are Chosen was released this year and you can properly tell these guys have been heavily influenced by the 90's music scene and they fuse that effortlessly into their own special brand of London cool sensuality. Awesome stuff
Public Enemy- Harder than you think. This was THE TUNE of the summer especially for London 2012 Olympics and Paralympics. You couldn't turn on your TV without hearing this song. Public Enemy are Hip Hop royalty and this song just seemed to inspire unity and leave the scent of revolution in the air.Hope they made so dollars.
The Jackson 5- I want you Back. Ok seriously this song needs no freaking words just enjoy.
Bonus- How awesome was Micheal Jackson? What a freaking bad man, guy was genius just look at him he looks different and moves different from the rest. A league of his own and them socks woooh lol just Epic. Every few years I get obsessed all over again and have a massive homage of his greatest hits and this is that time.
It's the bank holiday woot, woot! Its time to kick back, relax and maybe hit the carnival. The last weekend in August is synonymous with Carnival in the UK and Europe, so to honour our epic 2 day event here is a lil classic sumthing sumthing to get the parrrttaaay started.
On with my list of awesome tuneage.......
Thinking about you- I am still channeling orange. Frank Oceans album is the stuff and I foresee me playing it for a long long long time! I absolutely love this tune. Poor guy who smiled on the train last week, I wasnt singing to you sorry lol
Wildest moments- This is the brand new British artist is called Jessie Ware. She has been around for some time and has featured on man like me songs as well as Rinse fm radio but her own album devotion is out now . Love the simplicity of the video.
Kidike -Its afro beats time. The sun can not be shining and you don't buss out a lil African tune. If we close our eyes we can pretend this random muggy weather is just like African sun lol (lies). The church scene is funny as well.
Party animal remix- Having been around for a bit and featured on loads of UK artists songs, Mikill Pane is beginning to make waves. His flow is so different and his voice is well very indigenous shall we say. He has a very British sound and style. I love all the little references in the video -intro and supermalt people!
Glory days- Blackpool born singer Karima Francis has been simmering on the periphery for a while now and has been well received at festivals etc after her first album the author. She has a very interesting overall modish look with about 3 different hairstyles in her hair. Her voice is so unique, she has a Tracy Chapmanesque vibe going on. I am absolutely LOVING this chilled out ,stripped down song.
