Mandu Soul returns with a vibrant new single, “Last Dance,” igniting the groove with lush, ’70s-style disco strings that instantly set a retro-funk mood. A driving beat soon locks in, pulling listeners straight onto the dancefloor, as Mandu’s warm, melodic vocals unfold a playful “last-chance” story. Just as the hook settles in, a sharp, nimble rap verse slides through with wit and precision, elevating the track into a rolling, high-energy pop-soul party cut. Packed with irresistible hooks and feel-good swagger, “Last Dance” lands like a burst of sweet, funky candy—pure fun with classic soul flair and modern pop shine. It’s the kind of tune that sticks in your head and keeps your feet moving—so consider this your cue to make that move.

You can now catch this delightful new single on air across the Discovermusic.fm Worldwide Radio stations.

Some artists grow into their voice. Others are born with it. Mandu Soul embodies both. His sound—rich with nostalgia, emotional candor, and lived-in soul—balances fresh perspective with unmistakable old-school finesse. Raised in Lynchburg, Virginia, his Southern warmth flows naturally through his music. Rooted in ’90s R&B while drawing inspiration from legends like Stevie Wonder, Rod Temperton, Hall & Oates, Jodeci, Justin Timberlake, and Lauryn Hill, Mandu is crafting a modern soul identity grounded in timeless feeling. Proud of his Virginia roots, he also hopes to connect with fellow creatives from the state’s storied musical lineage.

Years in the making, his debut album Entelechy reflects a patient artistic journey—one driven by growth rather than haste. The title itself speaks to realized potential, a theme woven throughout this 12-track exploration of love, longing, self-doubt, devotion, and self-discovery. Featuring singles such as “Destiny,” “Can’t Wait,” and “Friends,” the record invites listeners to feel deeply, reflect honestly, and celebrate life’s emotional spectrum. More than a collection of songs, Entelechy is Mandu Soul’s statement of becoming—turning inner worlds outward and making dreams audible. As he puts it: “I want to make music that can make you feel—sharing a piece of my soul that touches others.”
