A new sound woven by Mom Tudie and Zambian soul singer August Charles
Mom Tudie, a musician father, grew up surrounded by high-quality music from a young age, and has been influenced by a wide range of genres, including jazz, pop, hip-hop, and soul. The sound, which is a unique blend of these elements, is also known as “DIY jazz R&B,” and has received high praise from radio stations such as BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra, 6Music, and NTS, as well as media such as Complex and Clash.
“Devil On My Shoulder” is the second single from the EP scheduled to be released this year. The cast will be starring August Charles, an alternative soul singer born in Zambia and raised in Doncaster, England. While inheriting the delicate expression of emotion from Frank Ocean and the smooth groove of D’Angelo, it is attracting attention for its sound that combines retro soul and modern R&B. The theme of this song is the difficulty of conveying harsh love to someone close to you, and dealing with your own emotions. The percussive, organic beats typical of Mom Tudie resonate comfortably, and August Charles’s speaking vocals are intertwined smoothly. This song deeply touches the heart, with its impressive composition that slowly depicts quiet conflicts and shaking emotions, and is powerfully growing towards the end.


Mom Tudie has collaborated with up-and-coming UK artists such as Tom Misch, Tiana Major9, Kwaku Asante, and edbl. August Charles has been highly praised for his live performances, working with Nile Rodgers & CHIC, Emeli Sandé, Bilal and Adi Oasis on stage. I would like to pay attention to the new sounds that the two are woven.
