Video: Bilal Covers Bob Marley’s “Is This Love”

I hope everyone has gone out and purchased their copy of Bilal's new LP, Airtight's Revenge by now. We've waited 9 years since his last commercially released album, and I for one am not at all disappointed by this LP (check the OKP review). In celebration of the release, VTech premiered this footage of Bilal performing the Bob Marley classic "Is This Love." Video directed by Greg The Dude. VTech has more live covers from Bilal on the way, including his rendition of Portishead's "Strangers." Buy Airtight's Revenge via iTunes or Amazon.

Yo Im one of Bilal’s stan and even though sometimes I just don’t understand what he’s trying to do I can just push him to go forward and this Plug research label seems to be a great place for him to make good music, think he would be able to play with the awesome Miguel Atwood ensemble at interscope ? haha

yep it is good. plz fix the video.
jjj

brought tears to my eyes. both he and the band are incredible. a couple instances when i would have put his voice a bit higher in the mix (lyrics got drowned out a bit), but beautiful nonetheless.
