iSouth Artist to Watch: Sam Smith

The iSouth Artist to Watch popped by SiriusXM Hits recently, and recorded a beyond-vulnerable cover of Whitney Houston’s ’80s classic, “How Will I Know.”

In contrast to the original’s infectious rhythm, the U.K. crooner’s version is slowed down considerably, recasting “How Will I Know” as a bittersweet lament of unrequited love. Totally Sam’s M.O., as anyone who has listened wept along to his debut studio album, In The Lonely Hour, can tell you.



Even though there’s a piano accompanying the “Stay With Me” singer, it’s Sam’s voice that’s the star of this video. As he recently told The FADER: “I’m so passionate about the singing voice… What I’m trying to do actually with my album is show that it’s my voice that’s leading. It’s my voice that’s the instrument.”

Well, all that weeping has certainly drained my feelings reservoir. I think I, like, physically need to listen to Whitney’s original “How Will I Know” on repeat for a few hours to build back that serotonin.

Day 26 - Lose Control
  In the ’90s, R&B was in its prime. With groups such as Jodeci, Silk, and Boyz II Men supplying us with quality, authentic music, it’s easy to remember just why we have become obsessed with the sounds of that time. Unfortunately though, more than 20 years have passed and we still haven’t been able to replicate the same feeling from music that we got back then.Only a couple years removed from the Bad Boy circle, the Day26 guys are making a return with all orignal members Robert Curry, Brian Andrews, Willie Taylor, Qwanell Mosley, and Michael McCluney. They take on Silk’s ’90s Quiet Storm classic “Lose Control. Though a cover, Day 26 seems to be getting back to the basics by slowing it down and making baby-making music. The EP, The Return, drops on Thursday, June 26. I love effort from the guys, but check their version and Silk’s live version from the Apollo in the 90’s. Hmmm I think Lil G is the truth!!!! Sorry guys…Silk 1 to 0.
