introducing Selah Sue

I have been constantly reminded by Coco, by Danny, by Max and of course by our Top Tunes Group on Facebook to write about this young lady and musical gem and i kept on postponing it, but here you go >>> Selah Sue is an outstanding new artist that has delivered a great selfentitled debut album in the vein of a folky, soulful and simply friendly attitude embedded in a great summery vibe. They are comparing her from Duffy to Lauryn Hill to Amy Winehouse to Adele to any other good female artist within the last decade or so. Let her music speak for itself and check her album out, if you havent already.

Selah Sue – Peace of mind

The many remixes are worth a second look.  Some of the songs on the album are a bit too poppish for me, meaning without a lasting impact, but the many good ones are quite the opposite – i think thats why i even mentioned the not-so-good ones, cause its surprising that she has any! But in general the overall vibe, her voice and especially the lovely mellow tunes go very deep and i enjoy her sound very much. hope you do too.

Movin down the line – Raphael Saadiq

Here are 2 track from his brandnew album ” Stone Rollin”. Still sticking with the 6oies vibe he started on his previous album, this one sounds to me like the consequence of a new found sound that Mr Saadiq seems to prefer. This one is not really up my alley at first glance, but i know that the best songs and albums have to grow on you and we have a lot of Saadiq fans, just like myself, that have a lot of patience with RS after all the beutiful music he has deliverd throughout the years and we have been eagerly waiting for this one. Check it out for yourself via itunes

EDIT ***And just after having these two tunes on repeat for some 20 minutes i can assure you, these songs DO grow on you. Very mature, Mr RS!
