Kareem Ali is not only my favorite artist at the moment, but this man is also one of the brightest stars in the jazz house scene at the moment.
The New York native has recently dropped The Color of Sound - making that his THIRD album in the space of 7 months following up the Godson of House series. Lodged in the very center of The Color of Sound is "Rise Up", a groovy gem embellished with soulful vocals and the cries of his signature trumpet throughout the intro. The drums are bound to seduce your hips to sway a little while the arrangement of the keys ensures this tune becomes stuck in your head by virtue of their catchy appeal.
