Thrills don’t come much giddier than being given the seal of approval by one of your childhood heroes, and this is what happened to Azekel Adesuyi when he released the video for his single New Romance last year. The song was very well received, having been picked up by Â鶹ԼÅÄ Introducing in London, and gaining a lot of support from Â鶹ԼÅÄ 1Xtra and 6 Music, with Lauren Laverne naming it as one of her tracks of the year. It was clearly a more-than-worthy follow-up to his previous critically approved releases, the single That Feeling and EP Circa.
Then came the key moment, the New Romance video was tweeted from the short-lived @3rdeyegirl account run by none other than Prince. Yes, that Prince.
After a boost like that, playing Glastonbury can only be a close second in the thrill stakes. Oh, and keep an eye out for the single Mad About The Boy, and his two-part collection Raw, part one of which comes out in mid-July.
