Jamie Lidell is back with a super charged R&B track that is so D’Angelo and Dilla sounding. Oh probably cause the legendary Pino Palladino is holding it down on bass duties.

A power-pop soul anthem.

Techno monger, Jimmy Edgar fulfills Jamie Lidell’s “You Naked” full jacking potential. It is a full on funky dancefloor ready version of Jamie’s already over the top cyber funk.

Jamie Lidell unleashes his full on vision of Future Pop with “You Naked” off his upcoming self-tittled album on Warp Records. Listen to “What A Shame” off of the same release and the Tom Waits meets Outakast “why_ya_why”.

Jamie Lidell returns with his self-titled album on February 19, “What A Shame” is the first we hear of Jamie Lidell’s latest sound. It is a metallic sounding electronic funk RnB track that Jamie says pulls from Mtume, Cameo, New Jack Swing, Bobby Brown and George Clinton but I definitely hear Jamie pulling sonic inspiration from his contemporaries such as Rustie. I am definitely intrigued how Jamie taps back into his electronic roots while still crafting well written and produced songs on this new album.
