If R&B softens you up and Funk starts you to grinding then the two of them together makes a smooth and lively ride. Shu's got plenty of catchy grooves, rhythms that make everything else melt away, and a fresh appeal that won't be fading anytime soon
Soul singer Shu's sound has been dubbed "a little bit Stevie Wonder, a little bit Marvin Gaye," but he's determined to blaze his own musical path.
Samira Nanda - Reuters News Network
"[I] got drunk on the heady delights of each individual song . . . Shu is an undeniable talent . . . with so much to look forward to."
Dormouse - AlterEgo Magazine
"Outstanding lyrics and originality . . . [his influences] blend and clash in Shu's music without robbing it of its individuality . . . [Shu is] in a class of his own . . ."
Evan Mwangi - The Daily Nation
"Shu is a soulful, organic, original voice on the music scene. He has the ability to reach the intellectual, sophisticated listener and the down home crowd. His new CD "Shusic" is one of the most soulful, honest and provocative works to have come out this year. The CD is one of the best of 2005!!"
Kody Emmanuel, Producer - WBAI Radio
"Shu's music reminds me of a well crafted work of art. It's full of life, color, creativity and originality."
Dona Taractecan, Founder - Fear No Art program
Featured as "Next Up" artist
