His debut solo album "+" is released on 19th September, posting it in here for now but it can always be moved if the genre's more urban.

Based on what I've heard so far, really think it's gonna be good!

I can't wait to hear this. While the songs on his EPs are all great, I hope he includes plenty of new material on the album as well.

There's more new stuff on this than I thought there would be, although he's performed quite a few of them live before. :) Can't wait to get this.

Pre-Ordered my copy of this with my local record shop which SHOULD mean I'm getting to a free gig he's doing in Kingston on the 1st 8-)

I think he's alrightttt, his music doesn't excite me that much, but I prefer it to most of the stuff in the charts atm.

90 second previews now on iTunes! Sounds like a decent album, I like the sound of "Small Bump", "The City", "Lego House" and "Little Bird" the most on those clips!

Adam will love "Wake Me Up".

Cos it's one of those songs that seems to have lyrics about day-to-day things that you and Kate Nash love so much.

U.N.I., Wake Me Up, The City, You Need Me & Little Bird are all online already. They were early demos/from his EP.

There's a live version of "Wake Me Up" where he goes into "Hold Yuh" by Gyptian too, pretty awesome.

He played for about an hour when I saw him, he was sooooooooooooooooo good, and the versatility is incredible. There were hints of Buble in his voice when he covered Feelin' Good - so smooth, and the next minute he's spitting lyrics at 100mph. Probably my favourite new artist in a long time!

He did quite a few from the album - Small Bump, Little Bird, The City and Wake Me Up I think, as well as the singles and some older stuff.

I didn't realise Small Bump was about his ex girlfriend having an abortion.. :(

Oh, someone there told me that, he didn't say it. It makes more sense as I'm sure he said something in the song about it coming in 4 months and I remember thinking that was a bit late to terminate.

Also I wondered why he didn't cry.
