Dwele

Dwele's universe is one where r'n'b, spoken word, jazz and hip-hop collide to create a singular genre. Dwele's boundless vocal prowess, meticulous musicianship and deft songwriting skills challenge the best of the best. Imagine a producer / singer / instrumentalist schooled by hearty helpings of Marvin Gaye, Donnie Hathaway and Stevie Wonder, yet still influenced by the raw street artistry of today. As a former rapper, Dwele might have the trademark underground hip-hop swagger but the self-described 'old soul' possesses a heartfelt sultriness and sensuality that's been missing from r'n'b since the 70s.
