Name: Get It - Eva Gadd, Blue Lab Beats by Eva Gadd in ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 505
Duration: 3 min 26 s
Description: Eva Gadd is a stunning new force to hit the UK neo soul-jazz scene, with her vocal tones both delicate and captivating on her latest releases ‘Breathing’ and ‘Get It’, floating over a jazztronica groove that’s impossible not to move to. This is just the beginning for the young, up and coming artist and a fierce declaration of what’s to come from her.

Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Wednesday evening (or when we receive 200 submissions, whichever is sooner) - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 16th October 2023: from Friday afternoon you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch505

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. 

We also don’t accept short previews or SoundCloud Go tracks that can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which cannot be included in playlists. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks (and remixes of tracks) that have been previously submitted, and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

This is 'Enough', a poem I wrote the morning after the Derek Chauvin verdict. It's about the generational struggle for us to be seen and treated as human beings.

Read while you listen:

Lyrics:

To all the souls who can't be named
I hear your passion and feel your pain
So many people stemmed from one
Together we shall overcome

If now is already too much
Why isn't now enough?

Another win for sacrifice
Another day, another trial
I'd rather have my mother's life
Another moment left to time

If now is already too much
Why isn't now enough?

I know the roads been long
Lifted in the promise of redemption
With the spirit of my generation
I am someone

If now is already too much
Why isn't now enough?

Enough

The ability to meld together emotive lyrics and a compelling melody is fast becoming the trademark of 23-year-old Soul Pop singer-songwriter Eva Gadd.

Winning the support of BBC Introducing - who were "blown away by her incredible vocals and flawless production" Eva is still on a high from performing on the BBC Introducing stage at Truck Festival this July and the O2 Academy, Oxford.
