They only met and started working together in 2016, and have the kind of chemistry together that most duos work towards their entire career.

Feature Friday Josephin Bovién Danish newcomer Josephin Bovién, whose name alone fulfils the term 'artist', adorns the palette of her debut album Caramel Babe with poetic delivery and construction. On some tracks, Josephin's delivery style takes a little getting used to, however, her vocals are always engaging and wonderfully intriguing. It's her uniqueness in a sea of upcoming R&B singers that draws and deserves attention.
