Anjulie - Warrior (L.A. Riots Remix)
Artist: Anjulie
Producer: Jon O'Brien
Album: TBD
Label: Unsigned
If an artist wants to achieve large scale success, they have to possess certain attributes: looks, talent and a will to keep fresh ideas in an otherwise stagnant market. Luckily for Anjulie, she carries all three without even a little struggle. The Guyanan bred, Toronto raised, Los Angeles based songstress already has a couple of Billboard dance hits under her belt, so she’s no stranger to success, but she is a new addition to the DJBooth roster. Utilizing dark warbling synths and a slow burning drum pattern from Jon O’Brien (a.k.a. J.O.B.), and accompanied by MadV and 12th Planet, Anjulie strikes with command on Warrior (L.A. Riots Remix). Her vocals are equally haunting and seductive, switching between wanted lover and scorned temptress between verses. For a woman who makes usually happy go lucky pop records, going dark is another way of showing how diverse she is. This may be her first feature here on DJ Booth, but I’m certain it’s not going to be the last before her currently untitled and unscheduled new album drops.

No, this record is not hip-hop. Heck, its not even hip-pop (you know, the genre running radio these days). The electro-infused, genre-bending sound on display here is unique to say the least, but since its refreshingly good, and a DJ could definitely give it a spin or two, it warranted a feature slot on our homepage.
Anjulie's vocals are commanding at all times and the way her voice trails off at the end of each line is very captivating. I'm a fan (whats next, dear?). |

I love complex, genre-bending music. So, this is a natural banger for me. It is very interesting to listen and try to decipher all of the elements, and the vocals aren't bad either.

This kind of electro-pop usually isn't my thing, but I have to admit that Adjulie totally won me over. The production's complexly dope, and her vocals carry the track without doing too much. There's nothing better than discovering new artists you dig, and this morning I discovered I dig Anjulie.

Really feeling this track. Great combination of production and voice, this is a banger. I feel like it's only a matter of time before we hear this girl on the hook of a succesful hip hop radio single. Impressive booth debut.

Anjulie has a great voice, and the production is very well done. True, its not hip-hop, but it has many hip-hop elements in it. You can't deny the creativity of it. Great song.

I'm just trying to figure out how come this song is a hip hop record. Well I can't, I tried. Anyway, I'm not a hater, it's a good workout song, and a good song for running.
