Hold Up ft Kendra Foster is the breakout first single on Lonely C’s (aka Charles Levine of Soul Clap) debut album, Charles & Tribulations. Foster, known as a multitalented force of singer/songwriter who's toured the world for over a decade with Parliament-Funkadelic, won a grammy for her co-writing on D’Angelo & The Vanguard’s Black Messiah, most recently set forth as a solo act with her 2016 eponymous sophomore album. This may be Kendra’s first foray into house music, but she’s no stranger to the groove. This is a dance-floor classic in the making, already receiving powerful response from crowds at Soul Clap’s DJ sets. On Hold Up, Foster sings, “It's a sad and sorry thing if you gave all you got, its the day of reckoning and you ain't got a shot!”. Life tends to reveal its lessons in enigmatic ways — this fundamental story, paired with Lonely C's strong rhythm, huge analog chords, and powerful bass line, serves up a dish of steaming hot empowerment! Remix duties are handled by none other than Chicago legend and member of The Chosen Few DJs, Mike Dunn, who brings us even deeper with his signature added vocal licks and swung melodies. HOLD UP!

Lonely C is the brainchild of Charles Levine (also one half of Soul Clap) an emotive psycho-naught who came of age during the 90’s rave days and is currently splitting a time share on planet Earth.  With 20 years of DJ experience he is most at home in the DJ booth, but that has not stopped him from taking it to the stage to sing, play keys/synths and beyond.  From House music, to electro, disco, funk, soul, R&B and dub, musical eclecticism is his key to moving bodies and shaping minds.

Lonely C is typically associated for his work as one half of the DJ/Production duo Soul Clap who spent the past decade touring the world (collaborating with legends such as George Clinton (Parliament-Funkadelic), Nona Hendryx, Louie Vega and Midnight Magic to name a few) and are founding members of the Brooklyn based musical collective Crew Love; however Lonely C is Charles’ latest solo endeavor and with a recently finished full length album titled “Lonely C - Charles & Tribulations” 2018 is looking to be a very exciting year for new growth.
