Leela James [2021] - Put It On Me (See Me LP) [BMG]


Leela James (Aleicha Janeice Campbell) released "Complicated" in Feb. and now pre-releases the second single titled '"Put It On Me" from her upcoming seventh album "See Me" due on 30 Jul 2021. It's 'real' soul music, no gimmicks, no auto-tune, no vocoder, no rapping, no sampling or any other malarkey just fine soul music as it should be.

I did a feature/partial discography on her last April and provided links to her album discography in the post for "Complicated".

KuchiCola [2021] - Clown's Tears [Self Released]


This has been out over three weeks (released 28 May 2021) and I keep returning to it as I wasn't sure but I think there are a few good tracks on it. It's right on the edge of neo soul/R&B.

KuchiCola (aka Nicola Charmaine Granger) is a Zimbabwean/British singer from Johannesburg, South Africa and this will be her third album since 2019. She's also released a four track EP, but oddly, no singles.

The best tracks, for me, are "Wanna Be", "You" and "Follow"

Reading through her facebook it appears that her father was a well known South African motivational speaker Dr Alex Granger who died on 10 Jun. So I send my deepest condolences to her and the family at this very difficult time.
