Since Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak joined forces to form Silk Sonic
last year and smashed onto the scene in Apr 2021 with the
debut single "Leave The Door Open", there have been literally
dozens, if not scores, of cover versions of it. One of the latest is on
the EP "Into The Covers, Vol. 5" by J-Sol.
Silk Sonic's original version currently has just shy of 900m streams on Spotify
alone so, assuming the same on Amazon and Apple and not including other
streaming services, that means, in theory, almost half of the world's
population has listened to it, but of course many will have listened
more than once but you get the point i.e. people like the song!
J-Sol is from East London and is a graduate of The Brit
School (Croydon).He rose to prominence singing covers on YouTube which
garnered praise from the likes of Nile Rodgers, Teddy Riley
and Boyz II Men who he has supported on tour.
As the EP title suggests, its number five in a series of covers
EPs/albums. On his soulful R&B flavoured version of "Leave The Door Open" he is joined by London singer Hari. I must admit that I'm not familiar with any of the other covers,
although the final track is a medley of Usher songs.
