Sooo, I just came across some fire and I have to share. Hailing from East London, the singer/songwriter A.L. croons melodically over classic beats from the late, great J Dilla. That’s right. This young lady was bold enough to hop on some Jay Dee productions and do her thang. Her style is slightly reminiscent of both members of Floetry. Yep, she gets her Floacist on, rhyming coolly as if Dilla designed those beats especially for her.
Personal stand out tracks are “123456789”, taken from Q-Tip’s “Let’s Ride” (a true banger, btw), and “The Urge”, which is an ode to a lady’s yearning for just a good ole fuck. But please believe, the whole EP is a smooth ride.
