You Should Listen to... NAO

Today is wednesday, so is day of "You Should Listen to..." and I decided to choose one of my new favorite singer, her name is NAO.

Neo Jessica Joshua, better known as NAO, is a British singer-songwriter from East London. 

About her music: 

Genres: electronic music, funk and R&B.

Discography: 

For All We Know (debut album released in 2016).

Her most famous songs: "Bad Blood" and "Girlfriend".

The first time that I saw her name, was in the song "Superego", taken from Disclosure's second album "Caracal" and I really loved her voice. However, I few months ago, I decided to look more info about her and was when I heard "Bad Blood" one of her first songs that she released this year and when I heard her unique music style, I fell in love with her. But I wanted to listen more of her music, so I heard one of her EPs called "February 15" and she stole my heart.

Talking more about her music style, Nao sounds pretty original and even when her tone of voice is reminds me to Aluna's voice (from AlunaGeorge) Nao plays with her voice in a way that she can sing in different ways, I mean, from soft voice she becomes it in a deeper voice, like in "Bad Blood". Also, her songs have beautiful mesages and, in general, she sings about love and heartbreaks. Actually, one of my favorite songs from her debut album is "In the Morning", which is about a breakup and the song is so ecstatic and the way in which she sings the song, makes you feel her pain, it's amazing!

However, if you want to dance, she also have tracks with a danceable funky beat, such as: "Happy", "We Don't Give A", "Fool to Love" and "Get to Know Ya". Also, her debut album released on July 29th, 2016, received an average score of 82% based on 14 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim". So now you know, if you really want to listen to a great music, Nao's debut album is the indicated for you.

For this and much more you should listen to NAO's music.

You Should Listen to... BANKS

Every Wednesday will be day of "You Should Listen to..." as part of the new sections from Jus' Sayingg and today, I decided to talk about BANKS:

Her most famous songs: "Waiting Game" "Beggin for Thread" 

I decided to talk about Banks for several reasons, such as, she is pretty talented as songwriter, her tone of voice is unique, she sings songs full of truth, she has a unique music style and because I really like her and I think that you should know her, she worth it.

The first song that I heard was "This Is What It Feels Like", a dark pop ballad with electronic beats and catchy lyrics, this song is so ecstatic. I remember that when she released "Goddess", her debut album, I downloaded in the first day of its release, because I wanted to see if the album was as good as the song and I found unforgetable ballads with beautiful lyrics.

For those who didn't know, she's about to release her second studio album and I'm very excited, because the three songs that she has released from it, are so different to each other, so it means that "The Altar" (the title of the upcoming album) will have different music genres and messages.

So, if it's the first time you hear about Banks, don't worry! Never is too late to start listening to a new artist, actually, you are in the best moment, because she is about to starting a new era.

I will publish her newest single called "Gemini Feed" that is amazing, take a listen!
