A classy, richly layered, new funk-pop-soul number by the high-voiced south R&B London singer-songwriter who has echoes of Curtis Mayfield. The Peckham/Catford man has previously released a tribute to J Dilla, and collaborated with artists including Tom Misch and Kojey Radical, as well his band The Transformers, who switch between different instruments during gigs. His last EP, Tortoise, came out in 2017, but to watch out for, listen to and purchase more, visit his Bandcamp or Instagram pages.
I been here since the morning
Hear them voices a calling
Trying hard to ignore them

I’ve worked too hard
I need that fast, woo
Stop playing
Gimme the loot
Because I’m the sheriff you know I’ll shoot
The return is this evening

Just gimme a look
Gimme a reason

But mama said let it go, let go (let it go, let it go)

Mama said don’t you know, don’t you know
(Don't you know, Don't you know)
Yeah, That karma comes around
Stop playing, gimme the loot
Tryna be a better man
Stop playing, oh
Gimme the loot
I’m struggling
Stop playing, yeah
Gimme the loot
Tryna be a better man
Stop playin, but I'm struggling
Ouchhh
Huh
Stop playin …
