Bobby Womack - The Bravest Man In The Universe

Uploaded to YouTube yesterday, here is the new single and title track from Bobby Womack's forthcoming album 'The Bravest Man In The Universe', which is set to drop June 12th on XL Recordings. The production is entirely handled by Damon Albarn and Richard Russell, and if this is anything to go by, then it could well be one of the albums of 2012. One of the greatest artists of all-time - great to hear that he's recovering from his recently revealed illness. Top class.

Eric Benet - Muzik (Feat. India Benet)

Featuring his wonderful daughter India, 'Muzik' is one of my favourite tracks from R&B crooner Eric Benet's forthcoming album 'The One', which is set to drop June 5th. Eric has been one of the most consistent male vocalists over the past 16 years, but this could well be one of his best releases to date - dope production, beautiful lyrics throughout and just jam after jam. Can't wait for an EP from India.

Hidden Jazz Quartett - High Heels (Feat. Omar)

Any new Omar is good news, but new Omar with a band the calibre of the Hidden Jazz Quartett is great news. The sax-driven jam oozes funk and will be released on June 1st with a more uptempo Lack Of Afro remix, which you can also check out after the jump. Great track.

Marvin Gaye - Mercy Mercy Me (DJ Spinna Remix)

Uploaded 10 months ago, but only brought to my attention today by the guys over at BamaLoveSoul, here is DJ Spinna's head-nodding remix of Marvin Gaye's classic 'Mercy Mercy Me'. There have been countless remixes of the R&B/Soul legends tracks over the years, but this is most definitely up there with the best. Seems like nobody else knows about it either, so enjoy, and share.

Yuna - See You Go (Prod. Pharrell)

Produced by Pharrell, here is my favourite track from Yuna's self-titled debut album, which was released yesterday. The classic beat from Skateboard P and Yuna's unique vocals compliment each other perfectly and make for the most refreshing piece of upbeat soulful R&B. LOVE.

Josh Kumra - What We Might Find (Feat. Mahalia) (Live Studio Session)

A few months ago Josh Kumra & 13 year old Mahalia got together to write a song called 'What We Might Find' - recently they recorded a live studio session of them performing the song, and tonight it has gone live. Ever since Mahalia met Ed Sheeran and he tweeted about her last year, the young singer/songwriter hasn't looked back, and is currently working on her debut EP. Josh is brilliant as ever - this is beautiful.
