Belgian indie-queen-on-the-rise has her eye on the throne of FKA Twigs & Kelela
Few debuting artists gather an equally amount of overseas praise as Justine Bourgeus, or Tsar B, with her first issue âEscalateâ from â15. Her spooky-electronica-meets-ethereal-oriental-tinted-R&B nestled itself in the heart of world renowned choreographer Alexander Chung and the song even made it into the American version of So You Think You Can Dance, with name mention and all! Tsar B doesnât need more than a debut EP and a brand new, sultry single âGold Diggerâ to be the unabashed Belgian, challenging, European indie-queen on the riseâŠ

Dark & omnious R&B, Tsarâs saccharine vocals creating an undeniable dynamic.â - PIGEONS AND PLANESâHer dark-blue oriental R&B feels almost androgynous in places and recalls fragments of some of alternative pop's most daring artists: FKA twigs, Beyonce and Banks.â â NOISEY/VICE
