October London is an old-soul singer and songwriter whose smooth, heartfelt vocals recall R&B giants of the past like <a href="spotify:artist:6hnWRPzGGKiapVX1UCdEAC">Sam Cooke</a> and especially <a href="spotify:artist:3koiLjNrgRTNbOwViDipeA">Marvin Gaye</a>. London, a native of South Bend, Indiana, arrived in July 2016 with a featured role on "Revolution," the triumphant finale of <a href="spotify:artist:7hJcb9fa4alzcOq3EaNPoG">Snoop Dogg</a>'s Coolaid. Later that month, London made his proper solo debut with "Black Man in America," a bluesy retro-soul single filled with anguish, through veteran producer <a href="spotify:artist:1QkusyyiLCVP97x3TADKV9">Jazze Pha</a>'s Cadillac Music label. The song's parent release, an EP titled Color Blind: Love, arrived three months later and featured a duet with <a href="spotify:artist:5NDMothbpdpq2xHqSjrrWn">Faith Evans</a>. "KDB (Kisses Down Below)," a contemporary club track recorded with BCANIC, was out by year's end. London's output through only the first half of 2017 included second EP Color Blind: Hate & Happiness, an appearance on <a href="spotify:artist:7hJcb9fa4alzcOq3EaNPoG">Snoop</a>'s Neva Left, and the understated full-length Not Your Average Album. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi
