New Song: Alexandra Burke – ‘Go Down (ft. Shakka)’

Published: Tuesday 31st Mar 2015 by Sam

All roads lead to April 27th for Alexandra Burke.

The singer, who is staging a defiant sound and image overhaul, will unleash her free EP ‘Renegade’ on the masses on said date.

Having given folk a taste with the project’s title track, the X Factor winner serves up bedroom groove ‘Go Down’ as the next helping.

Take a listen to the Shakka assisted track below…

We approve.

With its moody, tribal kissed production and haunting vocals this makes for a wholly compelling listen.

We would have liked to see the track explode into something more climatic, however the restrained vocal and infectious beat compliment each other in a way that still satisfies.

Your thoughts?

    Idk her and that is sad bc she is talented. It is crazy how some Brit pop singers make it HUGE in the states while others never made it aboard the ship leaving the harbor. There aren’t a lot of young female VOCALIST who can stand next to the greats. I don’t need 1000s of soprano, 7 October singers but I would like to hear someone who has something more than a cute, almost talking singing voice too, who can make those jhene type songs with a powerful voice too

    Before I take a listen let’s talk about how freaking difficult it is to access TGJ through a smartphone… what’s with all those ads??? The site keeps randomly redirecting to bot apps on Play Store. Do something!

    • AmbeRussell March 31, 2015

      The PCM website is no better with video ads playing randomly and slowing down the site

    I love this song I really never heard any of her music but this song is real nice, it has a Caribbean vibe I can picture myself on a sail boat with beautiful weather on blue waters and enjoying the sun. Love it!

  15. Nobody’s Stan April 2, 2015

    I only listened to this because of Shakka, and he killed it as expected.

    Yeeesss! It’s been too long Alex.
