There’s no denying that the Spanish language has been slowly making its way into the American and British charts; for instance, we are guilty of having had Taini on repeat in the past couple of months. ‘AZUL’ champions the same trend, empowered by the charming and evocative vocals of young talent Nessa May. Originally from Equatorial Guinea and now based in Manchester, the hypnotising songstress builds a blissful and luscious sonic universe, blending bouncy grooves and relatable, sensual lyricism.
Moving at a rather slow pace, ‘AZUL’ still manages to motivate the keen listener into a soft dance, aided by the fusion of eclectic Caribbean rhythms and Afrobeat sensibility. Extremely contemporary and fresh, the single elevates May into music Olympus, showcasing her as a solid promise for the future.
A multi-disciplinary artist, Nessa also excels in dance and choreography, a signal that the project benefits from true creative flair. Set on realising her musical universe, May has already hit the jackpot with ‘AZUL’. Looking forward to seeing her bloom into a bigger act!
