Most of modern music is assembly line junk. Overrated, talentless artists like Taylor Swift, Beyonce et al. But every so often, something special comes along. These days, that's getting rarer and rarer.

Olivia Dean is one artist I can safely say is blowing me away. Her lyrics and arrangements sound like the days of old, when music wasn't just plug-and-play junk. Her songwriting is reminiscent of the classic '70s singer-songwriter style.

I'm so disengaged from modern pop that the first time I heard her music was literally this month, and I was hooked. Take a listen if you haven't already.

I wondered why I connected so quickly, but after reading up on her, I found out her mother is Jamaican-Guyanese!

I'm sure I'm late to the game on this one, but say what.

Olivia Dean to di wurl!
