Tamaraebi - Brown Angel (Official Video)

Brown Angel’ is the brilliant new single and video from Tamaraebi, the first track to be lifted from the London-based musician’s new EP ‘Spectrum’, which will be released May 19 via Believe. ‘Spectrum’ is a set of six classy and sensual songs that suggest Prince, Miguel and The Weeknd as kindred musical spirits, while revealing Tamaraebi’s voice as a warm, soulful instrument with a modern edge and an effortless, knockout falsetto.

“Brown Angel is a modern-day psychedelic blues song with hip hop and RnB undertones,” comments Tamaraebi of the single. “It’s been described as a stoner’s love song. The video was directed by Tatenda Jamera and we came up with the concept together. We shot it in an old pub in Peckham at the height of the Black Lives Matter protests last year. I wanted to do something visually that contributed to black art and also celebrated the varied beauty of blackness - from a fuller figured model to really dark-skinned ones. I wanted everyone to enjoy the beauty of blackness in its natural element, no matter what race they were.”
