This lady has been my favourite rudegirl ever since i first heard her in 2003 (no not on Fifa 03). Loved her entire first album and almost everything ever since, including remixes. What an impressive and tasteful journey she has been on for the last 7 years. September 4th sees the release of her new single and she has truly neva been soft all those years, and has through her releases always been a steady indicator of where the urban Uk sound was at. If you live in the Uk you probably disagree, but from this side of the channel it pretty much looks like it and i salute her new material. Always tasteful, yet rugged even when intentionally trashy but dead on. And from what the Schlachthof Bronx guys told me the last time we met at the airport, where they just came back from Sonar and saw her live: “No one ever told us she was that hot!?!”

Check this nice version of Jai Pauls’s BTSTU. The original was featured few weeks ago in our Video Recap of the YUM YUM Sommerfest – see it on chromemusic.
Seems like the wait is over, after a couple of tunes and a mixtape that everyone went crazy for, the Weeknd (or better yet Abel Tesfaye) quickly became one of the talks of the year and definitely one of the most prominent new acts this year, making people anticipate the debut album even more, even though the Weeknd released a whole set of 2011 anthems so far. ‘Rolling Stone’, ‘The Morning’, ‘Wicked Games’, ‘High for this’ and almost any other tune released so far.
I had ‘Rolling Stone’ (which reappears on the new album) on my chill Firewall Mixtape which was a kind of best of my ipod selection and i really had a hard time deciding which one of their tunes to put on. File under r/firstworldproblems
Decide yourself if it can live up to its expectations / people on Fb are a bit complaining that the mixdown is low on the vocals in comparison to the “House of Balloons” mixtape / true. Download & Enjoy “Thursday” full album here.
