This is a fantastic slice of moody electro-soul from 2 very buzzed-about artists at the moment – Theophilus London and Jesse Boykins III. “Cold Pillow” is taken from Theophilus’ upcoming project, This Charming Mixtape, a precursor to his debut EP, This Charming Man. After hearing this track I went and downloaded his JAM! mixtape which upon initial listening at least, I was less impressed with. But I’ll be keeping tabs on Mr. London and eyes open for the This Charming Man project on the strength of “Cold Pillow”. Here’s the official blurb on the song:
““Cold Pillow” finds Theophilus conveying the feelings of a torn, bitter man exploring the range of emotion experienced in a passionate relationship. From remorseful and somber to embattled and anger “Cold Pillow” touches the nerves with emotive lyrics and a melodic track”
