Song of the Day

Lucy the Tease - Allan Rayman

[Allan Rayman:]
Get out the car baby, please
'Cause any further, you can never leave



If you don't know who Allan Rayman is by now I don't know what you're doing with your life. The alternative R&B artist has gained a reputation as a bit of an enigma due to his mysterious live shows and secretive nature, and he is nothing less than an artist. He writes introspective songs and sings with a very unique vocal delivery, often crooning over the beat in a way that reminds me of the Cudi hum.



"Lucy the Tease" is the song that introduced me to Rayman and remains my favorite of his. He's released two albums in the last two years - Hotel Allan and Roadhouse 01 - which are both quite enjoyable and I recommend giving a few listens. "Lucy the Tease" is off the cinematic Hotel Allan, an album full of characters and stories. So do yourself a favor and learn yourself about this talented and strange new singer/songwriter. Moose, of the Toronto-based duo Substance, handles the laid-back, vibe-y production on this track.
