2016 is shaping up to be a great year for some fantastic music, step forth independent Soul Artist Kenya.
I am sucker for a tantric soul stepper and this one is no different, new single Make You Smile getting the French Producer and DJ Tom Glide is delicious. Special thanks Steve Ripley at Soulfood for keeping my DJ crates filled with sheer quality Soul Music.
I almost decided to give up DJ'ing in 2004, after a bad experience whilst playing at a West End nightclub, the manager refused to allow entry to the Black guests on my list and told me in no uncertain terms NOT to play any Hip Hop or Underground "Black Music".
I felt so low when I got home, thinking about all the hard work we had put in to fight and bring great, quality tunes to the public and it to be belittled by a manager in such a way, obviously not his fault, but the local Police had been giving them pressure about the people coming to the club. Who in most part were Hard working Black Professionals.
As if, in a moment of divine inspiration, I came across this Trevor Nelson Documentary and was inspired to just bring the best music, no matter what. Hope you enjoy it?
Huge single from my buddy Chris Brown - Back 2 Sleep and a massive tune in my Tantric Moments via my Urban Hedonism Radio Show (details on the right of this post).
There is no stopping this guy, he has a huge catalog of good music, just one mistake stopped him from becoming the biggest star of the modern era!
Had the pleasure of a Twitter exchange, but was snubbed for an interview by the label, as per usual, still giving the support though, new album JOYRIDE drops and also tour, UK dates below.
