1. BAMBII – TRUCK RIDDIM ft. BEAM
The Canadian DJ of Jamaican descent releases a new track with one of my favourite artists right now, BEAM. This is a perfect addition to the summer playlist now we’re allowed outside – am I right?
2. DBN Gogo, Blaqnick & Masterblaq – Khuza Gogo ft. Mpura, AmaAvenger & M.J
I was drawn to DBN Gogo after coming across the #Dakiwechallenge on Instagram. I’m slowly but surely getting into the South African House and Amapiano music scene, its sound is so complex and simple at the same time, and I love it.
3. L’Rain – Blame Me
This singer/songwriter/instrumentalist has such a unique sound and an amazing ear. The way she harmonises with her own voices and the instrumental somehow sounds like an A Capella. She doesn’t need much to pull you in with this track.
4. Jorja Smith – Be Right Back
Yes, we’ve been waiting for a Jmoney project for years but this EP will do! My highlights have to be the conversation at the end of ‘Time’ and of course… Bussdown ft. Shaybo.
