Jordanna Maria [2024] - Rescue Me [Self Released]

Jordanna Maria French is a singer/songwriter from Lincoln, NE, who has released five singles in the last  four years since May '21.

Her latest "Rescue Me" follows "I Apologise" released just last Friday (26 Apr) which is more pop/country oriented, so her new soulful R&B oriented single is not typical of her material but we like it.

Jorja Smith [2024] - falling or flying (Reimagined) [FAMM] (Full Album)

Double BRIT award winner Jorja Smith released her sophomore album "falling or flying" last Sep which consisted of 16 tracks. Today 8 of those tracks have been reimagined for an album  titled "falling or flying (Reimagined)".

We'd highlight the title track along with "feelings - reimagined" as our choice cuts. We've include the music video for the original version of "falling or flying" to show the contracts, as we feel taht the new version has more rhythm and depth.

Smith from Walsall, West Midlands, rose to fame with her very first single in 2016 which received 400k streams in its first month, Her second single was favoured by Drake which catapulted her career and she has gone on to win two BRIT awards in 2018 and 2019.
