Fire We Make - Alicia Keys and Maxwell (Official Video)

I think it will be fair to say that the Fire We Make from Alicia Keys and Maxwell is probably everyone's favourite track taken from Alicia's Album, Girl On Fire released late last year. It's always good to see or hear Maxwell on any record and this hoping we get a new record from him this year.

This is not taking anything away from Alicia's surprisingly underated album- It's definitely worth checking out.

The Impellers - Do What I Wanna Do (Official Video)

The ten piece funky collective, The Impellers have recently released a new double-sided 45 (Do What I Wanna Do/ Signs Of Hope & Happiness) taken from the critically acclaimed sophomore album, entitled This Is Not A Drill(Mocambo Records, Legere Recordings).

If you haven't heard of The Impellers before, I suggest checking one of their live shows - You will not be disappointed. They are getting a lot of airplay in Europe and Do What I Wanna Do was featured recently on The Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show (BBC Radio 6). I should also mention their debut album, Robot Legs released a few years ago is definitely worth checking out.

The Tony Rich Project - Fade Away (New Single)

We've been blessed with some great music this year, and the good folks at Hidden Beach are not holding back either with the release of the new single, from one of my favourite artists, The Tony Rich Project.

Fade Away is taken from Tony's 6th studio album entitled Speak Me which is scheduled for a summer release. In a recent interview with ReelUrbanNews.com, he describes the album as being inspired by the sights and sounds of South Africa.

Listen to the snippets of 'Speak Me' below and pre-order the album here.
