WhitsNoff [2021] - Call On Me [King Judah Productions]


Whilst this track was only released on 29 May 2021, he has already released another yesterday (31 May) called "1 Thing" which isn't nearly as good. I'm not sure I understand the reasoning for releasing tracks so close together as the previous one hasn't really had a chance to register yet.

From the label name and a few previous releases, WhitsNoff appears to be a gospel artist from Cincinnati, OH. He is originally from Richmond, Indiana and his real name is Kevin Whitson. He recorded a duet with Angela Sonido "Starting All Over" in 2019 who he married in 2017.

V9 Collective [2021] - Message in the Music [8th Tone] (Full album)


The V9 Collective is a UK neo soul/gospel group formed in 2009 and consists of Sam Lynch, his wife Vernetta and sisters Ruth and Tula and cousin Semele.

This looks like their first album since 'World To Me' in 2010.

I seem to recall "Power" being a breaker on Starpoint a week or so ago, although it wouldn't be my pick of the album as, for me,  there are better tracks such as "Make Me Happy", "Faith" and  "Our World" for example

With fourteen tracks to go through it's tricky picking the best after just one listening as I suspect that there are a few 'creepers' and 'growers' on there without any single track standing out a mile.

As I write this, the album is positioned at #1 on Amazon R&B Hot New Releases listing on 1 Jun 2021 after being released yesterday.

Curry [2021] - Never Knew a Love Like This [Cshb]


Debut single (?) from an artist named Curry, whose real name I would guess is Curnisha Lashaw Parker as that is who owns copyright. Other than that, as Manuel would say 'I know nothing', seeing as Fawlty Towers is currently being re-run on BBC!

Bernadette Cooper [2021] - May The Best Girl Win [Gotu Records]


Five different takes on the same song with different styles from R&B, funk, jazz, house from founder of 80s girl funk band Klymaxx Bernadette Cooper.

I think my pick would be between Osunlade and The 4 Diva Rules  mixes. Mr & Mrs. Cooper being a jazzy take, Just Be Fabulous & Cuddle a house mix and He's My husband  more R&B take.

Gotu as in Gotu records translates to Goddess of the universe which was the title of her last release in Feb 2021.
