Oxlade - #Reimagined
The original Slow Down by Skip Marley features American singer, H.E.R. and was nominated in the Best R&B Song category for the 2020 Grammy Awards. The Reimagined series by the Recording Academy sees talented artists record covers of their favorite Grammy-winning or nominated songs.
The Grammys releasing the video of Oxlade's performance of his Skip Marley song cover coincides with the release of his latest EP, Eclipse. On this new project, Oxlade collaborates with high-profile beatsmith Coublon to deliver an impressive body of work, a four-track extended play dubbed, Eclipse. Cocooned within falsetto-draped soundbeds, Oxlade navigates the complexities of love with infectious lyricism.
While More displays an eagerness for romance, Ojuju folds a sense of trepidation between its polyrhythms. With its beguiling refrains, dub bassline, and mellifluous chords, Incomplete best captures the magic of this duo.
