A rising star in the neo-soul scene! A superb album where her exceptional talent blossomed through collaborations with top artists worldwide.
At just 21 years old (as of 2014), Hyleen Gil is already a talented artist, active not only as a singer but also as a guitarist and composer. For the production of her debut album "Welcome," Hyleen teamed up with the acclaimed producer GOTTA, who has previously worked with artists such as Jill Scott and Jamiroquai. The band features drummer David "Finger" Haynes, who has performed with Mary J. Blige and Prince, and the mixing was handled by Qmillion, known for his work on Robert Glasper's Grammy-winning album "Black Radio." Now, the mini-album "U & I," which will be released in Japan, is a rich and fulfilling work featuring numerous豪華な musicians as guests. The drums on this album were played by Chris Dave, a unique prodigy in the Jazz/Hip-Hop world who also plays for artists like Robert Glasper, Maxwell, and D'Angelo. The chemical reaction between his beats and Hyleen's vocals creates a sound that is truly spine-tingling. The world's anticipated neo-soul star is making her way from France to Japan.
