Kwabs performs a cover of Blackstreet's "Don't Leave" in the BBC 1Xtra Live Lounge ahead of the February 3rd release of his forthcoming Wrong Or Right EP. The highly-anticipated 4-track debut project features production from SOHN, Dave Okumu and Ben Pearce. Kwabs keeps fans excited prior to the release date with a minimalist cover of the 1997 hit single produced by Teddy Riley. The result is a live rendition that keeps the laid back feel of the original and allows Kwabs to demonstrate the true depth of his vocal talent.
