The Best Soul & Reggae Music You’ve Never Heard Before

Will Lisil 10 April 2023
Soul and Reggae

We all love soul music, and if you’re a reggae lover like me, you know there’s always room for more! We’ve decided to introduce some new independent artists that to the scene that you might not know about.

Are you tired of listening to the same old hits on your Spotify playlists? We’ve got you covered. If you love soul and reggae music, then you’ve probably heard of the scene that’s been growing around it for the last few years.

The best part? It’s not just the same old songs from decades ago—it’s some truly amazing new music that deserves to be heard! If you love soul and reggae music but are tired of listening to the same old tracks over and over again, check out this playlist! It contains some of the best songs released by independent artists this year.

The song features a catchy melody, soulful vocals, and strong basslines. It incorporates elements of jazz and R&B, making it easy to listen to even for those who are not familiar with these genres.

1) EMILIA SUÁREZ – Timing

Emilia Suárez is a Bolivian-American actress and singer-songwriter who has just released a music video for her song “Timing.”

The single is an indie-alternative piano ballad with symphonic and atmospheric sounds that is fragile, dreamy and evocative while maintaining a delicate and vulnerable feel.

Emilía’s voice is smooth and sultry, but it doesn’t overwhelm her songs—it serves them instead by creating an atmosphere that envelopes you in nostalgia and comfort.

Her words are meaningful but not overwhelming—just enough to get your attention without feeling like too much at once. She reminds me of artists like A R I Z O N A and Emily Warren, who also have that same kind of relaxing sound but are still able to write songs that stick with you long after they’re over.

If you’re looking for something new to listen to today, check out EMILIA SUÁREZ’s YouTube or follow her on Spotify.


2) JON HENRI – Gravity

JON HENRI is a US-based artist from Kansas City who makes music that sounds like it came straight out of the 1970s—but it’s actually brand new! His songs are nostalgic yet modern.

If you’re looking for something to get your groove on, then JON HENRI’s single “Gravity” is the song for you. This is a super catchy song that will make you want to dance around your room or get up and boogie at a party—it’s just so darn fun!

With a funk/disco-inspired vibe, Jon Henri’s latest single, “Gravity”, is a dance track at 117 bpm with a funk/disco feel. As an indie release, this single has been picking up radio stations and clubs across the globe and has spread through the web of the largest record pools, as it is still in its infancy.

This single is so good that it’s hard not to get swept up in it. It’s the perfect combination of disco, funk, groove, retro soul, singer-songwriter indie pop, and pop—all with male vocals that are easy on the ears. It’s super catchy and easy to sing along with; it’ll definitely have you dancing in no time flat!

I highly recommend checking out JON HENRI’s website, where you can find more information about him and his music, and follow him on Spotify!


3) MARION HALL – I’m Doing Better

The extraordinary vocalist Marion Hall, who is no stranger to the pressures of being in the spotlight, is no stranger to the sound she has developed into an enthralling fusion of gospel, R&B, and soul, with touches of rap, rock, and dancehall. While that experience provides her with inspiration, it also gives her a sense of vulnerability as well.

The release of her latest single, “I’m Doing Better,” is a testament to the talent she possesses as an artist and her ability to constantly reinvent herself in order to make people love her.

The voice of the artist is so powerful and well-suited to this type of music. The chorus is very catchy and it will stick in your head for days after you listen to it.

Three-time Grammy Award Winning musicians Gramps Morgan and Shannon Sanders add their distinctive qualities as producers to the album.

I recommend checking out Marion Hall’s other songs on Spotify or visiting her website if you want to know more about them and follow them on social media.


4) MINA – Lucky

I’m always on the lookout for new music to listen to and I found a great singer/songwriter on Spotify recently. The name of the artist is Mina, and she is based in London, United Kingdom.

As part of her third collaboration with UK producer Nathan Britton (Ego Ella May, Pixie Lott), she has a cover of ‘Lucky’ by Britney Spears. The tune is a cover of the song.

Whenever you hear this one, you’ll see that they made it into a totally different version. They took their neo-soul influences and turned it into a groovy track that gives this huge song, written by none other than Max Martin, an entirely new perspective.

The song is pop but has a neo-soul vibe to it. It’s very relaxing and has female vocals that sound like they’re coming from another time, but also sound contemporary at the same time!

You should check her out by visiting her website or following her on Spotify because she is definitely worth following!


5) DEKAR JUSTUS – Fallin’

DEKAR JUSTUS is a dream pop singer-songwriter from Evansville, Indiana. The artist’s single, “Fallin’,” is an example of the neo-soul genre.

The song features a catchy melody, soulful vocals, and strong basslines. It incorporates elements of jazz and R&B, making it easy to listen to even for those who are not familiar with these genres.

Sonically, soothing and smooth in all the right ways, this musical piece is a treat to listen to. There is a wide range of audience for this song as it has a relatable message, a full band sound and a catchy hook that will appeal to a variety of listeners.

As the band met the r&b and soul “criteria” for their music, they also managed to incorporate jazzy horn sections and solos, along with alternative singer-songwriter, story-telling lyrics, whilst meeting the r&b and soul “criteria”.

DEKAR JUSTUS has managed to create a song that will make you feel nostalgic while still sounding fresh and innovative at the same time. If you want to check out more music by this artist or other artists like him then visit their website or follow them on Spotify!
