We say

After graduating summa cum laude from Berkeley after just two years of studying, Jhameel released his first self-titled album at the age of just 19. White Lie is our favourite track from his follow up, and shows how key simplicity so often is, with a basic drum, piano and bass arrangement throughout the track and led by an unforgettable melody. Jhameel writes, records, produces and plays every instrument on his tracks. His four-piece live band have opened in the US for Walk The Moon, Polica, Metronomy, and Hoodie Allen, whom he featured on a track with. The Oakland-based singer now has over 1.5 million streams to his name and has reached the top 10 on Hype Machine with six songs, and No.2 on We Are Hunted twice. The Guardian eulogised in their New Band Of The Day column that Jhameel's vocal was like a 'breathy voiced Prince/George Michael of a pop polymath", a sentiment echoed by many including us, joining the plaudits of the hundreds of blogs already raving about this incredibly promising young artist. Video for his track Shut Up.
