    Hi everyone and Happy International Women's Day 2022.

    I thought it would be very appropriate to present 2 overlooked pieces of vinyl from the stunning artists, Pauline Taylor and Kameelah Waheed. Both have a long and strong musical legacy pre-Ramrock and it has been the label's absolute pleasure to release their music. The Pauline Taylor EP is a incredibly emotive 4 track EP with Pauline's stripped vocals riding over her original dark, gospel tinged compositions. The sleeve is reverse board with an inner black paper bag. The cover artwork was a very special gift.....let's just say the artist would want 10K just to pick a pencil up. Kameelah's 'Holding On' is hip house, hip hop - call it what you want - it's just a joyous piece of music.

    For this weekend only, take this opportunity to grab two 7" at the special price of £10. There are limited quantities so don't miss out.

    Have a wonderful weekend.
    Jo xx

about

Ramrock Red Records are incredibly excited to present Kameelah Waheed – straight outta New Jersey. Brought to our attention by London DJ/promoter, Barry King, Kameelah immediately delighted us with her direct, no messin’ delivery, compelling, earworm hooks and beautifully crafted lyrics. Teaming up with Kelly Murray on co-production on the ‘Original Version’, Kameelah unleashes a stripped back, jazzy hip-hop vibe punctuated with a Donald Byrd’ish trumpet riff. The North Street gang take the Donald Byrd flavour a step further with a full on nod to the Mizzell Brothers in the first North Street West dusty funk production. Releasing digitally around April 24th as a five track EP with a further 7” vinyl release around May/June, ‘Holding On’ is set to tick a lot of musical heads boxes.

Growing up in an Islamic household, sneaking snippets of worldly music into her household was close to pulling off a major heist during Kameelah’s teenage years. She was introduced to the world of sound from MTV, rap and house music and the live bands of the 80's courtesy of her older sister, along with tribal and island music that her mother played. Kameelah was encouraged to consider song writing as a career option when she received an opportunity to write for Bunny Sigler of Philadelphia International Records. Heading up the hip-hop rock band band, Gov’t Cheaze in 2000, Kameelah performed at Philadelphia’s Black Lily Film Festival as well as a set at the very first Roots Picnic. Previous releases have included ‘Traveling’ by Kameelah Waheed & GC, produced by Larry Gold, featured on the ‘Beat Generation Compilation’ released on BBE, making the Top 10 Most Played on UK urban radio stations. In 2011, Kameelah Waheed and Government Cheaze signed with indie label, Philly Through My Ear (PTME) founded by Will Smith Sr. The self-titled CD can be found on iTunes.
