MORGAN'S PICKS
The PLAYlist featuring Glenn Lewis
Album: Chasing Goosebumps
The PLAYlist is the outcrop of DJ/producer DJ Jazzy Jeff. A collective of musicians, singers and songwriters that were brought together for one unusual mission - to inspire, conspire and collaborate on a new album - all in one week.
The result was the new album, Chasing Goosebumps (featuring Glenn Lewis). Morgan reviewed the songs Mr. Grump and this one, Good Time.
Album: Feminine Act: II
Female empowerment is the name of the game on this project brought to us by the uber talented, pseudo new kid on the block Anna Wise. She's a New York–based musician and artist who gained massive attention when she won a Grammy for her work with Kendrick Lamar.
Her new album is called The Feminine Act II. We reviewed the songs, Stacking that Paper and Some Mistakes - but here's another song off the album, Coconuts.
Henry Wu
Album: Deep in the Mudd
South London meets West London as Jamaal Williams aka HENRY WU has put together a six track EP which hearkens back to the sound of late 90's and early 2000 broken beat .
