Mixtape: Summer Williams “Late Night Session”

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

After three weeks of buzz cuts and accolades, the anticipation is FINALLY over. Summer Williams’ “Late Night Session” is fourteen tracks packed with super sensual lyrics, hyper visual imagery, and the perfect blend of beauty and grit known to the world as “Hip Hop Soul.” Packed with a unique jazz influence, her style harkens back to the days of Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holliday. However where the punch comes in, is her swag…..ohhhhh her swag, brings you back to that time in the early 90’s where you wore those starter snapper caps and timbo boots. The era of Mary J. Blige, SWV, and Lauryn Hill….the era of Hip Hop Soul. This tape is something soothing for the soul, mind AND mind.

You can download the tape on the link below.
