Maleek Berry covered ‘Turn Your Lights Down Low’ on BBC Radio 1Xtra, and lit it up

Catch the exhilarating music session on BBC Radio 1Xtra Live Lounge featuring Maleek Berry.

We had, in the past, seen the likes of Mr. Eazi and Yemi Alade grace the 1Xtra Live Lounge show with their performances, and now a recent Maleek Berry performance has really put us on edge.

Only following a week after dropping his highly anticipated EP, First Daze Of Winter. The crooner and producer performed a wavy rendition of Bob Marley’s “Turn Your Lights Down Low” on BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Live Lounge.

Thank you for having me @bbc1xtra ! #LiveLounge

His performance for “Pon My Mind” came with a minimalistic rendition from the instrumentalists, and Maleek gave the track a rhythmic recital that conjures a chorus to be fed alongside his vocals, while maintain its original flow.

And For “Turn Your Lights Down Low”, he sets the 1Xtra Live Lounge to an intimate experience as he exerts an excellent medley with the backup singers by taking on the first verse and chorus of the original song, before mashing it up with his hit songs, “Let Me Know” and “Been Calling” towards the end.
