The Independent noted it as "the best UK R&B album since the 1970’s blue-eyed-soul heyday". Over 10 years his sound evolved from acoustic and pop rock to soul and funk. His media image has also changed – at first he was just a teenage boy singing about his broken heart, but now he became a mature soul man. The press often writes about him, especially Q Magazine – he was on the…

School bands in the United Kingdom are generally similar to those in the US although pure brass bands are more commonplace in schools than in the US. Some countries usually prefer…

and piano was the first thing that came to them. After that, K-Rad picked up percussion in elementary school for a mandated music class. Aside from that, K-Rad would start to meet fellow musicians who inspired them to learn other instruments such as guitar, bass and, most importantly, rapping. Rapping was not something that came easily to K-Rad, but the rhythm, flow and cleverness of their favorite rappers inspired them to…
