Tertia May And Brooklyn Rapper Goya Gumbani Make A Bid For Freedom On "The Book Of Jonah"


May 08, 2019

Last year, UK jazz-soul singer Tertia May presented her debut EP, Kinds Of Purple, followed by a headline show last month, but with her new Not From Concentrate EP due June 28 she has revealed a new single, "The Book Of Jonah". The new track features Brooklyn rapper Goya Gumbani who sets the pace with his laid-back style before Tertia May comes in with her smooth, soulful presence over Subculture's production.

Speaking about the track, she said: "I was hanging out in the studio, with Goya, Subculture and my guitarist Cam May, when we decided about three hours in, to start jamming and making some music. The theme of this song is about trying to run away from your problems, however big or small, and not letting it consume you. I've wanted to get Goya on a piece of music for a while, and as soon as he started rapping over it, I knew we had something special."
