Rhys Nicholson & That 70's Funk Thang
Episodio en James Acaster's Perfect Sounds
Awaken My Love was a massive left turn for Childish Gambino and produced one of the best songs of 2016 in the form of Redbone. Influenced by George Clintons 70's band Funkadelic but with modern techniques, it made Rhys Nicholson "Horny..but not for sex"
