Jai Paul Suddenly Drops Debut LP
Sunday 14th April 2013 | Charles
Every once in a while an album gets thrown out of nowhere. We've known about Jai Paul for a couple of years but apart from two released tracks in the shape of BTSU and Jasmine, no-one knew when we'd get anything knew due to his reluctance to any form of press coverage. Well apparently here's his debut LP now up on bandcamp. On first listen is already clear it's kind of extraordinary, but strangley none of the songs have titles, although both previously mentioned tracks are on here.
In terms of sound perhaps the best comparison would be a more colourful The Weeknd, but better because he's from Harrow or more specificially Rayners Lane. Listen below.
EDIT: It's now looking like this is far from official and not put out by Jai Paul but someone trying to make money from his demos. So give it a listen because it may be a while before we get any new stuff but don't pay for it, wait for the official and likely better release.
