DOWNLOAD: Bilal - Free

It's been 10 years since Bilal's First Born Second arrived to grateful fans and tag-happy critics eager to slap the neo-soul stigma on his avante-garde arrangements and old-soul falsetto. After years of label politricks shelved his further-left-leaning follow up, Bilal Oliver is finally feeling the effects of freedom. "Free," a preamble of sorts to the forthcoming Airtight's Revenge, finds him letting his funk-flag fly, not sweating the small stuff (radio, singles, sales) and doing what he set out to do: sing.
