‘Hey, Boy’ by Goapele

Stylish, jazzy, on the cool side, and somewhat reminiscent of Sade, Goapele (pronounced gwa-puh-LAY), is an American soul and R&B singer-songwriter with roots in South Africa. An artist who actively seeks community change, her name means ‘to move forward’ in Setswana, a Southern African language.

‘Stronger Than Glass’ is her fifth album, released on her own label, Skyblaze with distribution via BMG.

She’s a class act; smart, vocally alluring, and visually stunning.
