Otis Redding – Try a little Tenderness (the original to Jigga & Kanyes Otis single)

While everyone is still knocking Jay-z & Kanye for how bad their, this weeks released, album “The Throne” is for a list of various reasons – here is one that Chuck D brought fwd – i still cant get over how awesome their sample for their lead single “Otis” is. Not a song to dance to, even though people go mental when you play it, doesnt look anything like dancing though, i think its brave enough and in the vein of the old fashioned hip hop to use a sample as soulful as this for a heavily promoted hiphop track, thats meant to go chartland and – no i dont care what they are saying and how much they are bragging about stuff. i stopped paying attention to hip hop vocals a long time ago. I picked better Mantras for me, no but THE SAMPLE is AWESOME. uhmm… i mean this SONG is AWESOME!

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.

Jai Paul “BTSTU” (edit)

This is the 3rd email that i am receiving about the song thats on our Sommerfest Video. Well its no other than a guy called Jai Paul and he is definitely one of the artists to look out for in 2011 and beyond. The man is signed to XL recordings and the song “BTSTU” was just a demo as far as i know. The BBC named his sound “Twenty first century kaleidoscopic funk” . And we all hope there is more material coming soon. His sound is full of WIN
