Scoring a number-one in 2011 alongside Wretch 32 with ‘Don’t Go,’ Josh Kumra’s foray into the charts has been a rewarding introduction. Now hoping to edge his way back into the field with his raspy soulfulness, the singer-songwriter has just released his follow-up single ‘Waiting For You.’
A tightly polished soul driven piece that salutes his vocal abilities over a choir of gravel-digging gospel and marching blues production. With more than just an incredible ability to turn music into hits, the record sees him creating a striking blues explosion that sounds like an unplugged CeeLo Green scorning the woman who did him wrong.
Kumra is years ahead of his time in regards to his capability that can enlighten the minds of young and old alike. While it lacks exclusivity, it’s good enough to keep you focused on the core essence, right from the magical throat of his rather graceful signature sound.
Thanks to ‘Waiting For You’, Kumra has now safely secured his place with an flair that rips its way through your ears and into your mind. Interestingly enough, his rhythmic thumping provides him with a crossover appeal that radio has been thirsting for.
‘Waiting For You’ by Josh Kumra is out now.
