Elle Varner has certainly been turning heads since bouncing onto the scene with a Soul Lounge favourite "Only Wanna Give It To You" ranking up there as one of our most loved of 2011.
She is continuing to prepare her debut album ‘Perfectly Imperfect’ sometime in the future, while we wait we are being treated to some cool tunes along the way. Check out the FREE mixtape she has just released ‘Conversational Lush’ by clicking the link HERE.
We were doing a little bit of reminiscing this week, we thought we would take it back to a song much loved off the album 'Silky Smooth Soul ... A tribute to Maze featuring Frankie Beverley'. Here is Joe laying it down right! Joe - Can't Get Over You
We fell in love with the sounds of Elle Varner when we heard her first single 'Give It To You' which came out just a few months back, and now she is offering a free sampler from my upcoming Debut Album "Perfectly Imperfect"

If you still have not sorted all of your gifts and you have a person in your life that loves some good quality soul & R&B then pick up one of the albums listed below and they will not be dissapointed. Robin Thicke - Love After War Jill Scott - The Light Of The Sun Anthony Hamilton - Back To Love Marsha Ambrosius - Late Nights, Early Mornings Eric Roberson - Mister Nice Guy Ledisi - Pieces Of Me
DJ Jazzy Jeff and Ayah continue to make us loungers happy as they add to the musical experience by dropping a video to the latest track "Forgive Me Love". If you are unaware it is from their newest project entitled 'Back for More'
The video, directed by Toronto's Slakah the Beatchild is really nicelely done, adding to the talented Canadians making some great art.
José James has released his new single, “Trouble,” from the forthcoming 2012 album No Beginning, No End, can't tell you how much we are looking forward to it!
It is a great return for Jose who’s voice is just on that level. José explains, “’Trouble’ is the story of a man trying to love a woman, his world and himself.
What can we say, the original is dope but the remix does it justice! Jose James - Trouble (Oh No Remix)
Not only is this whole album still getting massive spins for us here in the office, but I have to say I was very excited to learn that the video has just been released from one of our favourite tracks ... 'So Into You'. The track is smooth and they have done a great job on the video (which you can check out below).
But don't forget she is touring the US at the moment putting on a great show, so see the dates below and if you can get along to see her ... Do It!
