Kelela's debut mixtape 'Cut 4 Me' was absolutely stunning. It seemingly came out of nowhere and, as if the Ethiopia-born, Los Angeles resident's sultry vocals and poignant lyricism weren't enough, it featured a shed load of productions from Night Slugs and Fade To Mind artists.
Bok Bok, Kingdom, Jam City, Nguzunguzu and Girl Unit were all on there providing fierce, drum-smacking beats and tracks like 'Cut 4 Me', 'Keep It Cool' and 'Floor Show' became anthems for the rough and rugged r'n'b-loving bass crew.
Now, about 18 months after it was released, a deluxe edition is dropping on CD and vinyl with remixes from all of those named above (apart from Bok Bok), with Neana, MikeQ, Massacooramaan and Rizzla also getting involved.

Kelela x Tink | Want It | Behind The Scenes
Ever since she released her progressive and promising debut mixtape CUT 4 ME in 2013, R&B singer/songwriter Kelela continues to impress with new material like the bass-heavy “The High” and the Bok Bok-assisted “Melba’s Call”.
Her latest, “Want It”, is a collaboration with rising Chicago singer/rapper Tink and features production courtesy of DJ Dahi.
The song, which was commissioned by Yours Truly for its Songs From Scratch series, is sensual and understated.
DJ Dahi’s click-clack percussion and ambient synths provide an inviting canvas for Kelela’s soulful hooks and Tink’s laid back verses. Listen in below.
"Want It"
Produced by DJ Dahi
Additional production by J.lbs & Patrick Wimberly
Mixed by Patrick Wimberly
Mastered by Chris Gehringer
Watch a behind the scenes look at the making of the song.
