Camille Safiya – Indigo
Camille Safiya’s strong and raspy vocals ring out loud and clear, along with her beautiful message on her three-song EP, Indigo. This new acoustic one will leave you as reflective and inspired as her previous gifts, Island Blues | The Sonic Memoirs and the one which personally reeled in my ear, 24k. Check it out for yourself below, and support this artist through the links below. Enjoy! camillesafiya.com facebook.com/CamilleSafiya twitter.com/CamilleSafiya

Snoh Aalegra – Don’t Explain (A Mini Album)
Snoh Aalegra’s soulful release Don’t Explain – A Mini Album left me feeling some type of way, that I love! I am certain that at times throughout her career, she will remind everyone of Amy Winehouse as she belts on tracks like Under The Influence, part 1 and 2. I love the vintage story-book style of this emotionally-soothing project. It really suits her traditional jazzy voice, perfectly. My current favorites are In Your River, Chaos, and Charleville 9200, which features dreamy harmonies by James Fauntleroy. Enjoy it for yourself, below.

Ankhten Brown & Eyedress – 420/20 Vision EP
Listening to Eyedress of Babe Slayer led me to many other dope musicians he supports, such as Ankhten Brown. The two released a collaborative EP called 420/20 Vision on the universally acknowledged holiday for lovers of our little green herbal friend. As usual, Eyedress’ production is beyond being on point, while he adds a few verses to the project as well. Ankhten Brown’s stunning lyricism is the other main focus as he goes on non-stop through-out many of the tracks. My current favorites are Emperor Steeze, Mowgli Jesus, Black Sheep Boyz, and Booty Vision. Listen for yourself below! eyedress.bandcamp.com facebook.com/AK47SHIP facebook.com/babeslayer777

Loe – Blue Moon
Loe is back with a new complete project called Blue Moon, in collaboration with Nedarb Nagrom. This is the first one I have heard from her since her debut helloe. While she has been unveiling recent songs on her soundcloud, I am ecstatic to hear something complete from this intriguing vocalist, once again. She has her own way of beautifully singing somber songs with a smooth approach that does not leave me feeling sad, but entranced in her words. This one also features other artists like Little Pain, J Trauma, Tama Guicci, and others you may or may not have heard. Some of my favorites from this project are Fria,…

Alexandria – Promise EP
I agree with the currently common idea that the massive catering for the soulful r&b junkie has been lacking for a few years now, but anyone who claims that r&b is done is tragically sleeping on artists like the ever-refreshing Alexandria. Her latest EP Promise is pure quality, filled with her stunning high notes and the sort of jams that give me the warm feeling that old school does, to this day. My favorites are You Ain’t Gotta Lie and Fly. Check it out for yourself below and enjoy. alexandriaofficial.bandcamp.com facebook.com/likealexandria twitter.com/Thee_Alexandria

TiDUS – Soon You’ll Understand EP (+Download)
It has been a couple of years since Tidus dropped his last project, New Age, which included note-worthy songs like Delancey, Without a Care, and Apocalypse. He released this prodigious follow up titled Soon You’ll Understand. The EP comes to us via his unique label For The Future, and marks what I feel is the beginning of a authentic movement within music. It would be hard to listen and not be inspired by the originality of this sound. Tidus lyrically looms from his peers, not only through his these dreamy beats produced by Villabeatz and Ed Weathers of Fast Life Society, but also his spiritual perspective. The way he uses…

Fresh Produce – Duce
Duce is the latest musical offering from lyricist/producer duo DJ Red-I and Playne Jayne. These artists hit even harder than with their profound introduction, We Are Fresh Produce. I always enjoy their storytelling style. With rhymes like these, which instantly grab attention and will have your mind vivid with imagery, the entire album only reiterates how special and relevant this group is to Hip-Hop. Dj Red-I’s beats are something fresh while embodying the golden era. My current favorites are Black Brittany, Duce Is The Crew, Hit Him Up, Gold Pieces, They Left Me, and 2000 Years.

YOUR HEART IS INSIDE. REVEAL YOURSELF. Are the words written as a message attached to a box Plewto Smith journeys toward in the latest visual from his #PUSSY (Pure Urban Sensual Satisfying Youngin) EP. This project is one of my favorite fresh listens of the year. He exhibits pure, originality that makes me excited to see and hear more from him.You Don’t Know Me is one of the powerful songs I felt from his vocals alone, and the video for it stuns as his “paper heart” is revealed. Check it out the intriguing visual for yourself below! PlewtoSmith.com plewtosmithbees1.bandcamp.com soundcloud.com/plewtosmith You Don’t Know Me

FemaLe IntuiTion is sO NeXt LeveL Mix 2
My second Female Intuition Is So Next Level mix is truly special. I played this one a lot over the past weekend and each time, it listed my spirits much higher than they were. In the same mindset of last year, I am featuring art which channels certain highs and lows many women tend to experience in life. It features new/revamped versions of classic, meaningful jams by Lauryn Hill, Queen Latifah, Erykah Badu, and Jill Scott, as well as some wonderful new-generation voices I recently came upon. This year, I have come into a deeper realm of understanding of what it is to not only be a woman in this…
