Billy Davis Unleashes Sultry New Jam ‘Shoulda Known’
I guess summer in Australia means a LOT more HEAT. Recently, I found the lead single from Billy Davis’ forthcoming album in my inbox and I have been bumping it ever since.
First introduced to classics like the Doobie Brothers, the Bee Gees, and Boney M by his uncle after his father tragically passed away when he was just 3 years old – Billy Davis found solace in music. Blending the sounds pumping from his uncles radio with the gospel music he heard growing up in church helped Billy to develop the signature sound that has catapulted him into mainstream consciousness.
Aside from releasing his solo work, Billy also fronts a band called The Good Lords with an ever evolving lineup – sometimes landing 11 members on stage at any given times. For Billy Davis, it is the collaboration with other artists that really drives him and he has been able to lock in some MAJOR collabs to date. From GoldLink and Brockhampton to Denzel Curry, there is no shortage of major artists taking note.
While there may have been many parties involved in the creation of his new tune, Billy Davis is the mastermind and music director making sure everything lands exactly as the should. This is an outright jam and more than enough reason for me to pay close attention to this album roll out. I suggest you do the same.
