Drawing on his 90’s Hip-hop influences, Jamaal Marvel releases, ‘Darkside,’ the newest single from his 2020 LP, ‘Tales of a Fool.’ Ridden with soulful sax solos, and lyrics referencing his no-care attitude, this groove inducing track is reminiscent of modern RnB legend Anderson .Paak, with nods to hip-hop royalty, J Dilla, with his use of jazz samples and RnB beats. Showcasing his warm vocals, Marvel tells us the story of his travels across the world, and implores us to acknowledge the importance of living – not just merely existing.
