Cherish it, &#8217;cause, a track dripping so much soul before the summer isn&#8217;t what I&#8217;d call a common occurrence. Named after the southern city of Toulouse in France (also dubbed &#8220;la ville rose&#8221; or &#8220;The Pink City&#8221; because of it&#8217;s red brick architecture),\u00a0<em>Tolu Adeyemo<\/em>, his real name, is a New York University alumni who studied Recorded Music and now works for a local label and originates from Ibadan, in Nigeria. <strong>Toulouse<\/strong>\u00a0-his stage name- just dropped some of the best soul so far this\u00a0year. And that&#8217;s within only a couple of hours from releasing his debut track on Soundcloud, and a <a href=\"http:\/\/pigeonsandplanes.com\/2016\/05\/premiere-new-yorks-toulouse-shares-stunning-debut-hurtin\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pigeonandplanes<\/a> premiere has also helped shed light on this very new talent !<\/p>\n<p>The highlight on the track aside, from the powerful and brilliant delivery of the vocals and lyrics, is the clever use of a the instrumentation. Really deepens the whole affair. Like a James Bond theme if you will. Adds so much drama. A skills most of the artists these days had forgotten to use and replace their sound with synths and other gizmos. BUt when you hear &#8220;Hurtin'&#8221; for the first time, you&#8217;ll get what I&#8217;m trying to say. It&#8217;s not overly complicated, you know when it&#8217;s organic, you can tell. Not processed, squeezed and well puke there as is for you digitally.<\/p>\n<p>And the drama must come from the early years of choir singing, as well as bursting some &#8220;well earned moves with Barney on TV every morning before Kindergarten&#8221; as he states. He&#8217;s got the edgy soul for him, and doesn&#8217;t let go until you&#8217;ve got hooked. Some parts of his first offering, I thought &#8220;darn, he sounds a lot like Leon Bridges, but then, those instruments really start to kick in and just seal the deal. He&#8217;s better than Leon Bridges on that level.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/musicbytoulouse\/hurtin<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"640\" data-carousel-extra='{&quot;blog_id&quot;:1,&quot;permalink&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/sodwee.com\\\/blog\\\/2016\\\/05\\\/introducing-toulouse\\\/&quot;,&quot;likes_blog_id&quot;:&quot;14097878&quot;}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 640px;
