Growing up to the sounds of classic 90s-era soul mainstays Gabrielle, Macy Gray and Sade, Paris blends her early inspirations with contemporary influences from genre-leading R&B songstresses such as SZA, Jhene Aiko and Alina Baraz - so you don't need us to tell you she's soulful R&B artist through and through. Refreshing in her gorgeous sound and style, 'Mine' showcases Paris' silky vocals alongside live jazz-infused production courtesy of Sampl (Gashi, Ms Banks, Justin Love), making it a unique addition to the UK R&B scene's thriving and ever-fresh resurgence. ? Paris demonstrates her talent for sensual, slowed down bedroom vibes on the single's latest live acoustic offering, a beautiful low-lit version that really shows off her ability to write and deliver authentic and relatable stories in any setting with just the right amount of emotion and impact, exuding all the makings of a rising R&B star while she's at it. ? Madison Paris is a hugely exciting entry to the UK R&B scene, and the unique fluidity she maintains within her soundscape as she incorporates elements of pop and jazz goes to show she really can do it all and draw inspiration from all around. With her Blue Hour EP close on the horizon, we can tell the future's going to be a bright one.
