Submitted by admin on Wed, 2012-06-27 14:25

Exactly a year after releasing his first mixtape, "8 Bit Love" (June, 2011), Ayo Olatunji returns with his progressive R&B mixtape, "Isolation," on July 24.

Yesterday (June 26), the independent singer-songwriter and producer gave fans a taste of the 11-songs set when he premiered three smooth cuts --"Strangers," "Overwhelmed," and "Piece of Mind" --- over on his soundcloud [1] page. Check them out below.

"Strangers"

"Piece of Mind"

"I'd Be Lying"

Ayo's talent runs in the family. He's the grandson of Nigerian drummer, Babatunde Olatunji. Olatunji won a Grammy Award in 1991 for Best World Music Album, as a part of Mickey's Hart's Planet Drum projects. The 27 year-old performed alongside his grandfather several times during his teenage years.
