Conya Doss - What We Gon' Do

When I first started this blog, indie soul songstess, Conya Doss was one of my first post (see here). This beautiful sister has been off the seen for the past 2 years, but this should come as no surprise to long time fans as this is routine of Ms. Doss since her debut in 2002. Now she returns with her 5th album, Blu Transition dropping in September. "What We Gon' Do" is the first single from the album, and it's a nice uptempo, funky bass line gem tackling relationships the way Ms. Doss does best. If your new to Conya Doss, I suggest you get to know her. Start here to catch up.

Nadine Charles - Kisses in The Morning (Video)

Reppin' the UK - singer, songwriter Nadine Charles gives us a track from her unnamed forthcoming album. "Kisses in The Morning" has a chill groove laced with Nadines' sweet angelic voice, which one can either lounge to or get up and move to. As for the video... pretty girl with beautiful features, nice sunny day, but what's up with the Reindeer? Oh well, the song still gets my cosign. Get your copy for free here. Check out more from Nadine via her myspace below.

Black Spade - Build & Destroy

On my ride to check out the Theophilus London show out here in Tampa this past Wednesday, I equipped my ipod with the eclectic vibe of Black Spade's – Build & Destroy Mixtape. 2008's To Serve With Love was in my opinion one of the best albums of that year "serving" souled out hip hop to old and new fans such as myself. With Build & Destroy being his first mixtape ever, he's done exceptionally well showcasing his varied styles, his passion for diversity and uniqueness in his sound and art. Stoney Rock as he is also known will delight the eccentric listener with stories of disdain for the b.s in music and entertainment and the reputations built around it, the strength of life and love and of course, just straight up hard hitting lyrics and beats. Peep the track below then go download the mixtape following.

JD Green - Make It New

Louisville, Kentucky: A new voice in soul music is stirring up. Youthful and rich in tone, JD Green Soul fills your audio space with a sweet classically trained voice that personifies the elements of all things funky, jazzy and soulful. My introduction to JD came via a twitter following sometime last week. I held off for a minute before giving her work a good listen, but today, I am pleased to say my ears have been gently kissed by this graceful singer, poet and musician. Her 16 track debut, Diurnal Movements is a beautiful body of work touching on love, life, fun times and free spiritedness. Peep the gospel infused, soul inspired "Make it New" below. It's just a taste of many great tracks off her album.
