She's
getting a lot of attention lately and rightfully so. Hil
St Soul (given name: Hilary
Mwelwa) could very well become the next household name
to land on these shores. She's blessed with one of the freshest
voices to come out of the UK in recent years and her debut release
'Soul Organic' which dropped
in 2000 is still getting airplay on stations across the globe.
But
things do change and so has Hil leaving Dome (stating that she
needs more creative control on her music), she now returns with
a new label in Gut
Records and a new album called Copasetic
& Cool. The lead off single - 'All
That (+Bag of Chips)'
is a steller of an R&B dance track that picks up exactly where
'Strictly a vibe thang' and
'Nostalgia' left off. A low
key organ intro with Hil haromizing starts the song off then in
comes the a heavy drenched bass line with a touch of the old keyboards
floating in here and there. Enter the voice that picks you up
and carries you throughout to the very end. Very well orchestrated,
produced and performed - another winner
The
release date for Copasetic & Cool
is Nov 25th so do pick it up if you get a chance. Hil's certainly
stepping on the brink of stardom 'cos her star is shining rather
bright these days and deservedly so.
Another TY-D Pick
indeed.

St Soul's 'All
That (+ Bag of Chips)'
