You already know how we coming...

@Fushou x @Thevintographer

THC (Fushou x Vinny Cuzns)

3rd + final single from the Brazil-influenced, Brussels-Kigali-based Tapioca duo is the joyously uplifting “Terra Preta.” 

With laid-back vocals from Le Tagarel that will have you singing along, the production from Sika - string + horn swells, vocal refrains, flute + more makes the track feel like a lost Marvin Gaye or Curtis Mayfield track sung in Portuguese. 

Featured on BBC6 Music, KCRW, KEXP, Worldwide FM, Tapioca are here to stay. LP “Samba em Kigali” arrives May 19th via Jakarta Records.

The good homies at Uno Loop present the 2nd single from inaugural LP “RBGxDD” via Abderraouf B Grissa (Pink Siifu) x Dan Drohan (Nick Hakim, Andrew Vanwyngarden of MGMT) is blistering afro-psych-funk track “Yacin.” 

https://www.unoloop.com

Raw drums, harmonized horns and wavy guitar come crashing together in the best possible ways, giving way to a sizzling second half that blasts you into a hard-funk orbit w/ a wicked drum break. 

Experimental yet catchy, the track is a glass of freshly squeezed sonic gold. RBGxDD out on Uno Loop June 9th. Ltd 250 vinyl press.

"Singing was always a big passion for me..I was always fascinated at all the acrobatic vocal runs some singers do with their voice. To me it's an athletic thing and I definitely see myself as a vocal athlete..and for that deeper understanding of my voice that I now have I have to thank my vocal coach Betty Lane. She literally helped me to push out the voice that had been waiting there for years, ready to come out, like "John use me, I'm your voice" and It was always a goal of mine to make a project that showcases my singing. I see myself as a singer songwriter first, I just grew up in the generation of rap, so the 2 styles just fused together naturally. I started writing poems around 8 or 9 years old, then songs, and then raps. I eventually put it all together…22 years later...the journey to my heart , through all the ups and downs of my career trying to discover my voice, who I am, all my travels around the globe. It all leads back to Home, in the most literal sense. The house I’m sitting in front of on the video for "Home" is the house my parents brought me home to as a baby. So for me it’s like going back to the original source, the original purpose. That purpose for me is to sing. That's why this album is so special for me...and Calvin made the perfect soundtrack for me to take you on a soulful stroll through my hometown, Detroit Michigan aka Motown. Hope you enjoy! As Dank would say.."Bless up!!!!!!!!""
