listen up all you soul brotha's and sista's !
...
haha, alright i'm done.
anyways, this newcomer of an artist does have a lot of soul in him. a lot.
now, there is a rather small percentage of soul singers/bands out there at the moment, as Motown saw it's last glory days way back when...
strictly soul singers are a rarity in the music industry that is mostly governed by rock or pop, and the different amalgamations of those two...
with Jamie Lidell, soul and the gospel-type singing from the 70s is a huge (and clear) inspiration for his music.
merging the sounds of soul with his own contemporary pop-electronica vibe, Jamie Lidell creates a new kind of soul that is down-right catchy and just...good.
i can foresee Jamie Lidell making it to the air-waves and making it big sometime soon...if not already...(as i don't really listen to the radio anymore.)
listen/watch:
Little Bit of Fell Good - as he serenades to a lady-horse?
Another Day - looking spiffy as he walks the streets and makes everyone feel good...
