So, Apparently Columbus Short Recorded An R&B Single Before ‘Scandal’…

…and it’s actually pretty damn good. The track is titled ‘Gave Ya’, and — while much of the track is done in falsetto — is does show that Columbus Short has fairly strong singing chops. You can check it out below…is there an R&B career on the horizon?

In related news, other, more negative parts of Columbus Short’s personal life seems to be coming to light as well in the wake of his recent arrest after beating up some guy in a bar, and (allegedly) his own wife.

IYES – Breathe

I couldn’t figure out why this song spoke to me, until I checked the credits and saw that it was co-produced by MNEK (along with the artists themselves). Check out the latest single, ‘Breathe’, from Brighton’s bright IYES below.

ALBUM STREAM: Oceaán – Oceaán (EP)

oceaan

Some triply music for your Saturday, courtesy of Manchester’s Oceaán. His latest self-titled EP is brought to you courtesy of Dazed Digital:

His initial breakthrough track “Need U” was a bouncy tropical house track that sounded about as far away from the grey skyline of Manchester as your imagination could possibly get, but with his self–titled debut EP on Chess Club Records this month comes a whole spectrum of frostier electronic pop. “Basement” is a sparse moment of listlessness, with the artist – real name Oliver Cean, conveniently – sighing “don’t know how to tell ya” over a 2-step rattle like a moment of drunken clarity in the smoking area, while “To Lose” recalls the fractured soul of James Blake.
