We say
From being a homeless teen from South London, Josh Osho hasn't had the easiest start to life, but out of the embers the now 20-year-old is signed to Island where the feel good and aptly entitled Redemption Days ft. Ghostface Killah glows with soul, a huge production and fantastic voice. Support is flooding in from radio, with Zane Lowe, Annie & Nick and Fearne Cotton leading support on Radio 1, and playlisting coming from 1Xtra. Last week's performance on Jools Holland's Later led to the No.1 position on Amazon's Movers and Shakers chart, and Josh trending on Twitter. In a short period he's already worked with RZA, Wretch 32 and Childish Gambino, plus featured on tours with MOBO, Rizzle Kicks, Emeli Sande and Giggs. We have to wait until June 25 to hear his debut album L.I.F.E, but in the meantime Redemption Days is a cracker that surely has masses of sync appeal, which should keep it on TV over the summer.
