Louis York, the duo made up of Grammy award winning creatives Chuck Harmony and Claude Kelly, disperse seeds of love, light and soul into the world with their new jam ‘Don’t You Forget.’
The romantic release dropped hours ago and carves a clear path out for its parent album which sees the duo draw on the work they created for Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Jessie J, Craig David, Rihanna and Bruno Mars to build a musical universe powered by live instruments, lush vocal arrangements and compelling stories.
They told ‘Billboard’:
We weren’t chasing to be artists at all. We’re happy to be behind the scenes. But the more we did, we started to see and hear all the things that were missing in terms of sound and topics and male voices — singing black men, black American voices. We felt like we were charged to filling the gaps, which is what spurred us to do this. It’s a heart mission more than an ego mission.

Now this is what r&b is missing
Truly — this is fire!
It’s a throwback feel without being derivative. The obvious comparison is Don’t Disturb This Groove by The System, but I also hear Whistle and the Force MDs, and basically a whole 80s New York vibe.
