I felt that I’d be a great to follow up after Mondo Grosso with a Amel Larrieux classic. Off her sophomore album, Bravebird, this is “For Real”.
Mrs. Amel Larrieux is a 8-year veteran to the R&B genre. She was the amazing vocalist from the Groove Theory. You may know their hit single “Tell Me”. After persuring her solo career, Amel has now reached a position where she is renown throughout the mature R&B and NeoSoul scenes.
Those who enjoy Anita Baker, Goapele, Sade, and the like, will enjoy many more songs from Amel Larrieux.
If you don’t already know, Mondo Grosso is a super producer out of Japan. He has the skill to produce quality music in almost everyof music. Usually he keeps within the boundaries of House and Soul music.
Here is one of his collaborations with the beautiful vocalist, Amel Larrieux. The track is entitled “Now You Know Better”. Check it out!
