As a preclude to his upcoming collaborative album Zulu Guru, Jesse Boykins III, and his producing partner, MeLo-X, have leaked “Black Orpheus,” an exclusive (but free!) sneak peak at what his newest project has to offer. Zulu Guru is the first full-length collaboration from singer/songwriter Jesse Boykins III and producer/emcee MeLo-X. With the album they bring together a solid collection of songs that reflect and define a new direction in hip-hop and R&B, both lyrically and musically. This new sound is rooted in traditional soul music, adding elements from multiple genres to serve a purely unique and honest look at modern romance. The song “Black Orpheus” is the world’s first look at the upcoming compilation and it sets a precedent for sultry love songs underscored by African drumming and a cosmic synth serenade. With one part R&B, one part rap, and a tad bit of everything else, “Black Orpheus” is a great teaser to what should be an even greater album.
