Kelela’s Cut 4 Me mixtape was one of my favourites of 2013. It paired the LA-singer with production from the likes of Jam City, Girl Unit, Nguzunguzu, Bok Bok, Kingdom to great effect.
On her first original track since that EP, she teams up with another producer Gifted & Blessed on the rumbling low end track ‘The High’ which is mostly a suitable backdrop for Kelela’s lush vocals. More please.
