The soulful “Take My Hand” is an accomplished track from Brooklyn-based singer/producer Sho. Taking an inspiration from artists like Prince and Blood Orange, Sho’s vein of R&B is melodic and nostalgic — also reminding fondly of The Style Council. Constant throughout is a sensual bass line and entrancing vocal presence, touting multiple layers, particularly during the fully successful “take my hand,” chorus. In the final minute, a bouncy ’80s synth touch adds nicely to the intermingling vocal croons and thick bass line. Look for Sho to make waves, as “Take My Hand” is very impressive.
