Jem is a singer, songwriter, DJ, and producer from Wales. Her music blends electronica, pop rock, and new wave with laid back vocals. This song has a positive sentiment and reminds me so much of Dido. Enjoy.

Prince New Single – Breakfast Can Wait
Prince released the official video to his latest single “Breakfast Can Wait” earlier this week and it is addictive! The smooth funk and soul that accompanies his familiar appealing voice blends beautifully in this new track. The even bigger surprise is the music video that features 18 year old dancer, model, and actress, Danielle Curiel, with a killer dance sequence and a female Prince impersonator. In an interview with Pitchfork, Danielle explained that Prince e-mailed her to create a concept video for his upcoming single. Talk about lucky! I think she did a pretty clever job with this. It is nice to see real choreography and fun acting makes it’s way back to music videos. Getting back to the music, if this single is a sample of an upcoming album, we have a lot to look forward to. Enjoy!

Laura Mvula
A soul singer-songwriter from the UK, Laura Mvula’s debut album is a must-listen for anyone who enjoys real talent. The lyrics and imagery in her music are really powerful. They reminded me of the stories and rhythm found in Louisiana or Georgia…you will see what I mean when you watch her videos. Enjoy.
