Josh Osho - Redemption Days


One track you'll want to keep your eyes on in the coming weeks is Josh Osho's Redemption Days - a smooth, soulful anthem that seems to soar on an appetite of hope and radiance.

Hailing from South London, Osho actually went to the same school as me (though I didn't know him personally). With a full-on gospel choir, and a thoroughly modern production sheen, Osho is lent a helping hand by Amy Winehouse collaborator Ghostface Killer.

There's a cool Britain/America parallel going on in the track's video between the two men and further projects the theme of unity and togetherness the song's sublime chorus strings itself around.

In a year where Aloe Blacc floats out of every passing car stereo, Osho is the kind of singer who could easily stand as our own British answer to the I Need A Dollar vocalist.

Redemption Days is released on the 1st August.
