iMusic... Noonakai - All My Journeys

"A band based in the northern city of Leeds from where they have overseen the propagation of their delightful new song on both printed sheets and wax cylinders to be enjoyed at leisure in households across the nation. 'All My Journeys' is a simple song - a few chords on Rhodes keyboard and guitar, sampled strings, drums but no bass and Karen Pirie's heartbreaking vocal. 'All My Journeys' is Air without the aloofness, quiet but passionate." - Press Release

I LOVE THIS! I can go ahead and conjure up some smart and witty words to describe this song as most bloggers usually do BUT the press blurb above said it best. This is a simple song but everything about it works and those vocals are doing it for me right now! Noonakai are doing it for me right now and you can check out the B-side to 'All My Journeys' aptly titled 'Escape To...' right below which is described as an "Instrumental with Echoes of Air"...

iNaija... Show Dem Camp + May D - Farabale (Video)

Slick NEW visuals from Show Dem Camp for their 'Farabale' single featuring the one they call May-D. The beat on this one GOES Hard and iThink I like the song now after watching the video. Who says visuals don't have a purpose? I still wish we had more rap verses on this and May-D had a shorter verse, maybe the song just needs to be longer??? I propose a remix with May-D strictly on the hook + bridge and a few more rap verses! Godwin, Wale let's do this!

iMusic... Jesse Boykins III - B4 The Nite Is Thru

“B4 The Night Is Thru is about looking for someone to share love in rhythm. When producer Machine Drum and I created this tune it started as conversation on how you go out just to party and dance the night away; but how hard it is to find that someone to move with because of culture of the time we’ve living in. The song is merely reminiscent of those times when you could dance with someone you didn’t know all night with no pressure, no expectations… just the rhythm and movement.” – Jesse Boykins III

Brand NEW goodness from the one they call Jesse Boykins III titled 'B4 The Nite Is Thru' off of his forthcoming sophomore album 'Love Apparatus'. Machine Drum is the culprit behind the production on this one. Listen below
