Yola Fatoush “Get Out (Leave)”

20 May 2014 — Parker Bruce

Last year, London duo Yola Fatoush released a charismatic album, Up Out Of It, on Time No Place with that amazing twirl of a track, "Vibrant," on it. Later in the year, they put out more: "Secret" and "Skeleton" with giddy and pumping A.G. Cook and Divoli S'vere iterations. And now they have put out a JoJo-referencing (in title at least) track, the teetering to-and-fro, "Get Out (Leave)." Sounding like Kelis' equally urgent 2006 track, "Blindfold Me,"  as well as M.I.A.'s stop-and-start, herky jerk "Pull Up The People," "Get Out (Leave)" is a combination of posh singing with rough and tumble beats which is the zone Yola Fatoush like to operate in (as evidenced in their recent mix for Berlin party Creamcake). Really can't wait for what these two will give us next.
