New Joint – El Ay / Genesis Elijah

El Ay ft. Genesis Elijah – “Starting All Over Again” (@El_Ay_UK / 2017)

Accompanied by a soulful Slave sample and a guest verse from the ever-impressive Genesis Elijah, Manchester’s El Ay drops some sweet melodies on this Ihsan The Healer-produced slice of warm, uplifting Hip-Hop-influenced R&B.

New Joint – Himal

Himal – “Makin’ Moves” (Himal.Bandcamp.Com / 2011)

Something a little different to the normal OTTN post but I definitely couldn’t front on the Hip-Hop-influenced dopeness of this track from London-based singer Himal’s forthcoming EP “Soul Light / Soul Love”.

Jam Session – Mary J. Blige

The Queen Of Hip-Hop Soul performs her recent single “Just Fine” at the BBC’s Maida Vale studios in London.
