The Milk - Every Time We Fight (Official Video)

Directed by and starring James Buckley (Jay from The Inbetweeners), here are the official visuals for the new single from Soul/Disco/Indie/Pop (they're a bit of everything) band The Milk, who are from Chelmsford and consist of Ricky Nunn (guitar, lead vocals), Mitch Ayling (drums, backing vocals), Luke Ayling (bass) & Dan Le Gresley (guitar, vocals). Love the song, and I'm very impressed by James' directorial debut - sick video. Out June 24th.

Kastle - Stay Forever

Fresh from coming off tour with 12th Planet, San Fran-based producer Kastle has been busy setting up a label called Symbols Recordings, and is now ready to kick things off with a release from himself. The title track is a slowed down dub version of Alicia Keys' R&B hit 'No-One', but sounds nothing like the original and takes you on a little dark and mysterious musical journey. Can't wait to hear more from this kid, but for now, stream the EP in full HERE.

Dwele - What Profit

It seems like forever since R&B crooner Dwele dropped his last album 'W.ants W.orld W.omen' back in 2010, so the lead single from his fifth studio album couldn't really come at a better time. Sterotypically pure and soulful, Dwele is on fine form and has me excited for the new album, which he is currently working on in the studio. One of my favourite male vocalists of the 21st century - this is so dope.

D'Angelo GQ Photoshoot & Funkadelic Cover

After performing a string of shows across Europe and announcing a few shows in America, D'Angelo has now done a fresh photoshoot with men's magazine GQ. Whilst on set he also performed a cover of 'Soul Mate' by Funkadelic, which you can check out below, and did an in-depth interview which you can read HERE. Quite relieving to see him looking and sounding so well. One of the coolest mother fuckers around.

Jessie Ware - What You Won't Do For Love (Prod. Sampha) (Bobby Caldwell Cover)

Produced by young starlet Sampha, who was shot into the spotlight last year following his key role on SBTKRT's debut album, here is Jessie Ware's stunning cover of Bobby Caldwell's classic 'What You Won't Do For Love', which was iconically sampled for 2Pac's 'Do For Love'. Nothing but love for this lady and everything she has released thus far. Cannot wait for the album.

Lalah Hathaway - Breathe (Live on Jazz FM)

Lalah Hathaway is currently in the UK, and a couple of days dropped into the Jazz FM studios and did an impromptu acoustic performance of 'Breathe' from her 2009 album 'Self Portrait'. She only met the pianist 15 mins before the performance. Stunning.

Mayer Hawthorne - Henny & Gingerale (Official Video)

Mayer Hawthorne brings us some partying visuals for the iTunes bonus cut from his 2011 sophmore album 'How Do You Do'. One of the coolest guys in the music business, and one of his funkiest tracks to date. Nothing not to love about this.

Josh Kumra - Helicopters & Planes (Feat. K-Koke)

'Helicopters & Planes' is the lead single from Josh Kumra's forthcoming debut album, which features Roc Nation rapper K-Koke. Wasn't expecting this at all, but it's incredibly sick, and has me excited for what else he's got to offer on his album, which will drop later this year on RCA.
