Soul Strutter: Joedi Summerville [2021] - SoulPower: Coming Home [AbstractMindz] (Full EP)

Joedi Summerville is from Tallahassee, FL, and since 2019 has released two albums, four singles and his latest five track EP on 4 Jun 2021.

I can't find any info on him but from listening to the EP my guess is that he's a singer/producer as most of the tracks sound like they are samples.

The whole package has got 70's influences, the sleeve photo and the music.

"Be Thankful" is his take (and yet another) on William DeVaughn's 1974 classic which just sounds like a repeated loop, it doesn't go anywhere. "Let Me" samples Kool & The Gang's "Summer Madness". The other three tracks have familiar sections so no doubt use samples. "All I Know" is only 1:14 and sounds like it samples a 60s girl group such as The Lovelites.

The best tracks are "Uptown Diva" which sounds like something from a 70s Blaxploitation movie soundtrack (and possibly samples one, but perhaps I'm influenced by the line 'Foxy (Brown) Cleopatra (Jones)') as it's got that kind of groove, and "Let Me" (which contains expletives).
