Big hair, don’t care forever.

Have you heard about Lion Babe? Consisting of Vanessa Williams’ daughter Jillian Hervey and producer Lucas Goodman, this unique duo delivers a mix of funk, soul, urban, and pop music that is nearly impossible to resist. Their latest single, “Jump Hi,” features a dance-inducing beat and uplifting lyrics about finding the light during the darkest of times. It’s not club fodder by any means, and even though Childish Gambino delivers a crazy good verse I would be absolutely stunned to see radio embrace this track without a huge demand from the public. That said, this song deserves to be HUGE. The video is performance centric, but it serves as a fitting introduction to the group. Check it out:

Lion Babe’s Jump Hi EP is out soon on Outsiders/Polydor. I honestly believe this duo could be the next big thing in pop music, but that can only happen if people like you – the listeners on the cusp of everything that’s new – make an effort to tell people about Lion Babe’s killer sound. Will you do that for me? Please?
