Thoughts
Sowelu is a great hip-hop and pop singer. Her music has a heavy emphasis on the background rhythm and is similar to what you would hear at clubs. You want to dance along :) She also has a very nice voice that is similar to Boas. Below are some great samples! The last song
Full Moon Sway is from the anime Beck and contains all English lyrics :)
