After teasing us for weeks, Aaron Porter has blessed us with a sexy video for I Wanna Let Love. Get it.

If you spend your life sparing people’s feelings and feeding their vanity, you get so you can’t distinguish what should be respected in them

Here's the video for Seven Churches For St. Jude, from Brixton's GAIKA. “The video for Seven Churches for St Jude is a piece about mental survival in an age of disaster media inundation,” says co-director (GAIKA is behind the camera too) Rob Heppell. “The last few years have seen the hydra heads of reactionary extremism bubble up through cracks that used to be called conspiracy theorists, lifting the tectonic plates of global politics and diluting reality with weaponised fantasy.” Get it.

We all have souls of different ages

If you haven't heard Nigerian-Canadian artist TOBi (purveyor of "unapologetical soul music") yet, don't waste any more time: press play. He sounds as good as he looks. Get it.

You are the finest, loveliest, tenderest, and most beautiful person I have ever known - and even that is an understatement
