I
was listening to Streetwise Radio when I heard Lynden David Hall’s
song ’Are We Still Cool’. I said this brother can sing. While
listening to his music and doing some research I’m sad to say he
passed away. Lynden David Hall was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma
in October 2003. He died on 14 February 2006 at
the age of 31, from complications of stem cell
transplant he received in January 2005.
This Wandsworth, South London
born singer, songwriter, arranger, and record producer had a lot of
talent. Lynden could sing! He won two awards for his singing. The
'best newcomer' 1998 MOBO (Music of Black Origin) and he was voted
"Best Male Artist" by the readers of Britain's Blues &
Soul magazine in 1999. Lynden is an amazing soul singer left this
world far too soon. I had to write about him so others that never
heard of Lynden David Hall could experience his remarkable gift. I
added him to my playlist. Some of my favorite songs are ‘Medicine 4
My Pain’, ‘Do I Qualify’, ‘Forgive Me’, ‘Sexy
Cinderella’, ‘All you need is Love’, ‘Are We Still Cool’
and ‘Sleeping With Victor’. I know he was taken far too soon, but
his music will live on. Streetwise Radio is playing Lynden David
Hall. You can also listen to Streetwise Radio on Pandora, iTunes,
MyGen365, Athena365 and Live365.
