UK soul artist Omar collaborates with three female artists for a release on The Remedy Project label. As a composer, producer and actor, Omar Lye-fook MBE has worked with various artists over the course of his three-decade career, including Stevie Wonder, Erykah Badu and Estelle - apparently achieving critical and commercial success with his defining soul releases.
For his first release on Melvo Baptiste’s imprint, Omar is joined by the GRAMMY & Mercury Prize nominated Joss Stone and BBC Introducing featured artist Morgan Munroe. ‘Girls’ revisits the Moments and Whatnauts classic from ’74, flipping it on its head and updating it for a modern audience.
Featuring the Urban Music Award-winning rapper SANITY, the single serves as a love letter to women everywhere; soulful vocals from Stone and Munroe are layered in harmony as jazz and rare groove influences combine.
‘Girls’ by Omar, Joss Stone & Morgan Munroe featuring SANITY will be available via The Remedy Project on 18 August.
