Toulouse

Following a stand-out feature on SG Lewis' recent single "Time We Had", Nigerian artist Toulouse shares his brand new single, "Reach Out" (out today). Taken from his upcoming EP—which is due to drop on Terrible Records this summer—"Reach Out" shows off Toulouse's full, and impressive, vocal range as well as his affinity for unpredictable, experimental beats.

It's no wonder he ended up being label mates with Solange. Speaking over email, Toulouse tells Complex: "This song is about inhabiting the sacrificial and most humbling role of loving a prodigal and dysfunctional person unconditionally. It takes more courage to love an imperfect being that to hate an imperfect being." Take a listen exclusively below.
