Just wanted to let you know that I checked on Stevie, Sade, Patti, Aretha, and a few others and everyone is doing well at the moment, so my remaining childhood memories are safe for now.
Whew. Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, let’s get into this week’s KBXSelect list. Starting the mood off right is the Foreign Exchange collective’s own Zo!, who teams with Dornik and Phonte on the lush and soulful “Lifelines”, the lead single on his 3rd album, set to be released later this month.
Speaking of soul, Klyne’s “Don’t Stop” is another standout track for me. It’s very electro-pop with a dash of funk.
Also on the list, you can also find an unconventional protest song (RIOT’s “POLICE!!!” ft. Overdoz.) alongside “Badonk” by Pouya and The Ying Yang Twins as a tribute to the feminine form.
And you know we love our hip-hop. Check out AllttA’s “Connery”, Tiff the Gift’s “Passed Out”, and John Pizza’s (ft. Alfie Lennox, Nappy Nina & Lil Kids) “Dutch Mastah Killah”.
Let us know what you are digging this week. Like it, share it, tag us using #KBXSelect.
