SONG OF THE DAY: Disclosure ft Mary J Blige – “F For You”

The only thing seemingly missing from the whole Nu-House retro-’90s craze is a properly legendary diva vocal. Whereas Dajae, Barbara Tucker, Kim English, Ultra Nat?, Joi Cardwell, and many others were featured prominently on the house tracks of the day, the current house revival has for some reason not let the singer be heard. Leave it to the Grammy-nominated British duo Disclosure to go back to the foundation and enlist Mary J Blige to sing on top of their massive track “F For You.” Originally released back in June, I wrote about the track here and played it in my club sets all year (it mixes so perfectly with Breach “Jack”). The pairing is perfect and Blige’s vocals add warmth and soul, elevating the song to an even more epic level. Miss Blige recently joined the duo for a performance at New York City’s Terminal 5, and an updated video featuring her vocal contribution was just released on YouTube. Now just imagine how amazing it would be if they performed this live at the Grammys on Sunday?
