02 Dear Love

Single out now everywhere: smarturl.it/rwjntbt

London multi-talent Royce Wood Junior continues the rollout for 'No Two Blue Ticks', his first LP in over 5 years, with a new two-sided single. 

Long known for being early on producing rising British R&B talents like NAO, Jamie Woon, Kwabs, & JNR Williams (all of which appear on the new album) – here RWJ continues that proven track record by introducing 2 new talents: the goosebump-inducing blue-eyed soul shriek of Burhou frontman Ross Hutchison (also known as Shirazpapi) & the airy, angelic falsetto of Lucey Way.

Personnel: 
Lucey Way - vocals
RWJ - backing vocals, guitar, keys, synth, programming
Jamie Woon - backing vocals
Ross Hutchison - backing vocals
Dave Okumu - bass
Gareth Lochrane - flute
Jake Meadows - harp
Moose Curtis - percussion

Produced, Mixed & Engineered by Royce Wood Junior

Lyrics:

Won't let a thing rely on fact,
And now you're to blame for lies and attacks, yeah
And all that you mean
Only two ways – to crumble or crack
And nowt left to say when love just don't matter
On what will we cling?

Yeah yeah yeah…

I'm with you now
In the rocket's red glare
I'm with you now
For the twilight's last gleaming
I'm with you now
For this

And oh, the old days
Where dawn once cracked
And now this new phase,
Where life just don't matter, yeah
And how will we sing?

Yeah yeah yeah…

I'm with you now
In the rocket's red glare
I'm with you now
For the twilight's last gleaming
I'm with you now
For this

I'm with you now
In the rocket's red glare
I'm with you now
For the twilight's last gleaming
I'm with you now
For this

A Few More Ideas V1

This project, to me, represents the cornerstone of personal and sonic growth over the past few years. Originally released in August 2024, this deluxe project serves as the continuation of those original songs with 5 new tracks.

Don’t waste your breath explicit phone call intro .mp3

“Supernatural” is a double album of praise & worship written from a place of spiritual awakening. Abigail Markley blends modern R&B rhythms with gospel harmonies, creating an atmosphere that feels both intimate and cosmic — worship that reaches for heaven and lands in the heart.

These songs explore healing, breakthrough, and the supernatural movement of God in everyday life. The album invites listeners to experience worship as transformation — the kind that lifts the soul, renews hope, and brings the light of Christ into every moment. Each track is as individual as she is.

Thaw My Winter Heart

Living between San Fran and DC, Diggs Duke is firmly cemented in the exciting soul & jazz scene coming out of the US. Rooted in jazz, Diggs Duke arrangements eschew traditional song structure for a looser groove-based aesthetic, punctuated with short bursts of Dwele-esque vocals.

It takes a certain kind of musical talent to fit such a wealth of ideas into this small a space without things feeling cramped. This new track sees him doing just that- showing off a gorgeous musicality.

The sparse arrangement of 'He Wants To Live Like You' finds all kind of beautiful tension in the gaps, Diggs performance on vocals and keys a reminder of his shining talent as a musician.

Released 22nd January 2015.

Diggs Duke - He Wants To Live Like You

"Our song is taking place in the friend-zone where you have our guy that is head over heels for Alicia. He affectionately nicknamed her “Alicia Sky” inspired from her impressive afro which similar to a cloud float atop of her head. At her wedding ceremony facing the prospect of forever having to hold his piece, our fella decides to free himself from the weight of his silence and whole heartedly shares the strong feelings he has for Alicia Sky".

Lyrics

[Verse 1]

My heart has become a mosaic and you are the artist
My heart has become a collage (Crafted with perfection by you)
How could I forsee this?
I never saw you come in
Seems like you've been here (always)
Nurture my mind and my spirit just by your nature
Touch me the way only you can touch me
you just might be
the one
I can see you're down to be mine

[Chorus]
be my pride and Joy
In my life (Nala)
I think that you could be (Nala)
the queen of my pride
and Joy 
of my life (Nala)
I think that you could be (Nala)
my queen and my pride.

[Verse 2}

your mind as fierce as your beauty
beauty as fierce as your heart
soft as the mist when you purr in my ear
I can hear it in your voice
its a frequency that resonates
you are my sun and my moon
you're the wind in my sails
warm as the ocean breeze in
Impanema (you move like a samba it's true)
this feels like deja vu
different yet so familiar
like we've lived before but you've always

[Chorus]
been my pride and joy
In my life (Nala)
I think that you could be (Nala)
the queen of my pride
and Joy 
of my life (Nala)
I think that you could be (Nala)
my queen and my pride.

"I created this piece for my father. He passed away Feb 2011. 
I think he would have been happy to see how much progress I made in creating songs since then. 
This piece was me having a jam session with myself using NI Maschine.
Drum programming, played the bass live on the pads, played the keys..
In honor of the 10-year anniversary of my first solo album, "The Golden Hour (sdtrk)", I decided to do a jazz-influenced rework of the song "Miss U" off the album.  This one is also dedicated to anyone who has lost a parent(s) 
Much love.."
