What does it mean to be Unfresh? Well, in a recent interview, first-time Booth featuree Andy Allo explains that it’s all about “...being original, not conforming, and being yourself.” So it’s kinda like being fresh… but different. Confusing? Yeah, a little – whatever you want to call her, though, the Cameroon-born, Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter/model comes with a genre-blending sound that’s as ear-pleasing as it is unconventional, as evidenced by this standout track off her debut LP. DreamLand finds Allo drawing inspiration from Wizard of Oz classic Somewhere Over the Rainbow (according to the same interview cited above), showcasing her breezy vocal stylings over a lushly sampled, harp-laced instrumental (co-produced by the artist and Mind Majors). Fellow Californian Blu brings his breathy, expressionistic touch to the second verse, and joins the headliner for a little flirtatious line-trading on the back end. Impressed by Andy Allo’s (un)fresh alternative/hip-hop/soul sound? Grab a copy of her debut set, released Sept. 22 and available now in stores and online.

This is the first time I've heard Andy Allo, but I'm hypnotized. She's got a Amy Winehouse meets Jill Scott style that's damn smooth. On repeat.

Rating:          Mike Dreams's Top Rated Songs I heard this last week and I loved it instantly, and not just because I'm Mike "Dreams". LOL. But Andy Allo can come be my "DreamGurl" anytime! This record was so dope and peaceful. It definitely had that Disney vibe. If people stop sleeping, they would go sample some Disney records (I mean, for like mixtape joints or whatever) because there are actually some dope compositions on Disney Soundtracks (yes…I’ve listened to the songs…I’m not ashamed…lol). But there’s definitely a lot of string instrumentation that would be dope to flip on some hip hop ish. She’s real cute and Blu served this up nicely with the chill flow.

Rating:          b90g09's Top Rated Songs I chose to listen to this song because I saw it was featuring Blu. But it turns out I fell in love with the whole song and I have officially become a fan of Andy's. She can TRULY SING! Her vocals are amazing on this record and, yes, my homie Blu did lay down a classic second verse. The hook is so beautiful and Mind Majors blew my mind with the production (pun seriously intended). This deserves no less than a five.

Rating:          B_Halo's Top Rated Songs Oh wow. I have been sleeping on the talent in the world. Allo is amazing, voice as smooth as aloe, and a presentation of lyrics that aren't confined in anyway to the 'fresh' standard of the mainstream. Blu comes through and laces the track, completing an already perfect record. The song also works because Blu and Allo have a natural chemistry that makes the song feel real and focused in a truly organic way. WHOA! FIRE FIRE FIRE.
