This week’s Listenin’ Booth includes music from Philadelphia’s own Todd Rundgren and The Roots as the Rock Legend and the Hip Hop Icons have collaborated on a new track. Plus four other essential tunes you should be listening to right now.
Godiva Girl – Todd Rundgren featuring The Roots
Revered classic rock god, Todd Rundgren teams up with hip hop luminaries, The Roots to deliver a sweet tongue-in-cheek new soul tune.
Honey – Dumhi featuring Bell, Ethel C and Michele QJ
A fantastic new retro soul inspired offering from Philly based music collective Dumhi taken from the brand new album, Uncle Miles. Brilliant.
The voice of Danish jazz singer, Nana Rashid has a timeless quality, reminiscent of such greats as Nina Simone and Radka Toneff. Mother Father is a deeply moving jazz tinged ballad questioning self-identity and representation.
Actresses – Oliver Wolff featuring Spacebar
Philadelphia rapper, singer and songwriter Oliver Wolff delves into love, spirituality, and self actualization on his latest project entitled The Chief Files.
The song Sainted builds out Big Joanie’s sound with percolating synths, propulsive percussion, and sidewinding guitars. It makes the perfect backing for this tale of quietly encroaching discomfort. Brilliant.
