Magda Sinit

neo-soul

I spent Saturday night in NYC watching the final performance of Sufjan Stevens‘ BQE at BAM, an entirely incredible experience. A full live orchestral instrumentation behind his tracks took away my breath and brought me to tears during ‘Casimir Pulaski Day’. On the bus back home, it was tough to merge back into reality. Helping smooth my transition is an artist who has an oddly unique name. But just like with Sufjan, behind that jarring moniker is quite a treat. Magda Sinit weaves her soulful vocals into finger-snap groove.

Nothing unexpected, just chilled for consumption.

    Magda sounds great-always good to hear some new soul blended with hip-hop. No need for an Erica Badu is there,,

    I was at the BQE show on Friday night – the full orchestra made all the difference…it was amazing! I’m so glad you posted pictures as we weren’t able to get any. Thanks!

    Hi
    I do agree… sounds too much like an Erika Badu twin sister…
