Interview: Youngman Opens Up About Single Who Knows
Loading...
Uploaded by SquarefacedVision on Jan 18, 2012
Singer Youngman has finally realised his musical roots. With the help of his father, drum and bass impresario Bassline Smith, Simon developed a fascination with music culture early enough to join the Music Societies College Youth Theatre & Choir Program and subsequently perform at some of the UK's most prestigious concert halls. From there he began to leave a vocal impression MCing over jungle riddims across Midlands' grime clubs before travelling to London and collaborating with dubstep heros Skream and Benga.
But it was always R&B that gripped him. He recalls, at age 10, being in absolute awe of Usher performing live and his subversive R&B collection. Now, with the help of Shy FX's label Digital Soundboy, he has stretched his vocals for his Skream-produced debut single 'Who Knows?' as a precursor to a debut album in 2012.
We were invited to the Digital Soundboy offices for a personable first-hand encounter with this emotive young talent, where he expressed his feelings towards the track.
