Eva Lazarus continues to ride the much deserved success of her acclaimed solo effort with the release of a new video. The Party is Over is produced by Dirty Dike and features a suitably slick video from Turbo Shrimp. The song is just one of the jewels to be found on Brandy Kisses, which was released last year on Melonskin Records.

NxWorries ft. H.E.R.: Where I Go
It’s been a while since we heard from NxWorries, but yesterday Anderson .Paak and Knxwledge reappeared with a brand new single, in the form of Where I Go. The track also features a strong feature from H.E.R., who assumes the role of Paak’s mistreated partner in both the song and the video, culminating in heartbreak and cake loss.
A. Billi Free & The Lasso: Between Us Is Light
Another blissful moment of escape courtesy of A. Billi Free and The Lasso, as they unveil the latest video from their collaborative album. The stunning and extremely apt visuals were made by Gabi Molina. Between Us Is Light is taken from Holy Body Roll, which is out now on Mello Music Group.
A. Billi Free & The Lasso: They Wonder
More tasters from the forthcoming A. Billi Free and The Lasso album, as they treat us to another single. They Wonder is more of that genre-blending soulful nourishment that we’ve been introduced to in their previous collaborations, and once again it should make you even more intrigued and excited for the full length. Speaking of which, Holy Body Roll is out on 11 March via Mello Music Group.
A. Billi Free & The Lasso: Thrive, Despite
The Lasso is back with more new music, continuing a run that has seen him at the helm of some of the most intriguing projects of the last few years. For this latest release, he has teamed up with A. Billi Free, the vocalist who has already had a hand in some of those aforementioned gems, including last year’s superb 2121. Thrive, Despite is our first glimpse of the forthcoming album, Holy Body Roll, and sets the scene with some soulful jazz-tinted production, adorned with some ultra smooth vocals from A. Billi Free. Holy Body Roll is due out on 11 March via Mello Music Group.
Indira May: Simpler Things + EP Stream
Another fine debut here, as Indira May releases the latest video from her recent Simpler Things EP. As you will hear, Indira is blessed with one of those beautifully versatile voices that would sound just as at home caressing a jazz rhythm, as it would lacing a hip hop beat. On the title track from the EP, we are treated to a sample of her appeal, as she brings her melodic strains to some suitably smooth production from Alfie Aukett. You can watch the video above and you can get a taste of the rest of the EP below, with other streaming options available on the usual platforms.
KAYANA: typing…
Taking things in a different direction now, thanks to the latest release from KAYANA. Regulars to the blog may already be familiar with her vocals, thanks to previous collaborations with the likes of Armand Hammer and Small Bills, but this is the first time I’ve featured her solo work. It’s a good place to start though, as she reaches maximum sensuality with assistance from production outfit, Down To Mars. You can stream typing… below, and stay tuned for more from KAYANA coming soon.

New music from Cutterz, as he paves the way for the release of his forthcoming album. A regular on the blog thanks to his work with the likes of Voodoo Black, Ellis Meade and Cheech, the Manchester DJ and producer has now found shelter at the always on-point Village Live label, where he will release his solo album at the start of next year. Sitting In The Dark serves as a fine amuse bouche for what else is in store and has already garnered attention from the likes of BBC 6 Music, which is never a bad thing. Stay tuned for more on the album as and when.
LayFullStop: Receipts
Always happy to welcome new music from LayFullStop into my life and this latest dose of melodic brilliance is exactly why. Heavier on the singing side than some of her previous tracks, Receipts features some beautifully woozy production from (Superbeats) and it’s lifted from Lay’s forthcoming mixtape, STiR. More news on that soon.
Swindle ft. Loyle Carner, Kojey Radical & JNR Williams: LOST
A very welcome return from Swindle, with the release of the first single from his upcoming project. LOST features some ludicrously infectious production from the man himself, as well as stellar contributions from Loyle Carner, Kojey Radical and JNR Williams. The latter provides a healthy dose of soul on the hook, while Kojey and Loyle go back to back with the bars. It’s a nice switch up in flow for Carner, something I’ve been hankering from him for a while. Keen to hear what the rest of the album(?) has in store.
