Nigerian-American Keep Cool signees, Vanjess broke well into the Nigerian music scene this year with their additional vocals on Lady Donli’s standout single “Corner”. Since then, they have been on our radar, even gaining a spot on our 6 videos you should watch this week column with the Xavier Omär and Sangö-assisted music video for “Just Get Here”.

Now the duo have landed a stunning verse from R&B Dreamville artist, Ari Lennox on their 2018 interlude “Cool Off the Rain” which was one of the standout tracks on their last album ‘Silk Canvas’.

“Cool Off the Rain” is everything we could have expected from each artist– a smooth feel-good listen offering which is developed further by Ari adding her frustrated, lovelorn lines “there’s been so much I can take baby cool down and off the rain” to the already soothing track.

Stream “Cool Off the Rain” featuring Ari Lennox below.
