Innosphere - Gotta Be Me

Innosphere is pianist/producer/composer/deejay Kenny Keys, who music fans will recognize from his work with Eulorhythmics, Prime Meridian, Rita J., and All Natural; and vocalist Nina Rae, a singer with an old-school jazz and blues background who has also shared stages with the likes of Common and Q-Tip. Together, they are making music that combines their shared funk, hip hop, jazz, and R&B influences with a plan and vision to create something fresh, new, and larger than life.

Innosphere - Everlasting Love

We turned you on to the Chicago duo Innosphere HERE. They're back with a 21st century remake of a 1978 Rufus/Chaka Khan classic, Everlasting Love.

The million plus selling, grammy nominated album, Ask Rufus, was an experimental one for the group. "For example, for the first time Chaka sings in a very low octave at the beginning of the song Everlasting Love. During an interview, after the album's release, she stated that she wanted to explore the lower ranges in her voice."

Check out the original and let us know your thoughts
