Shura has unveiled a fresh take on her debut single "Touch", with an alternative rework featuring Talib Kweli.
As well as this exciting news, Shura has officially finished her long-awaited debut album. No word yet on a release date, but it's D-O-N-E. It's called Nothing's Real and will be out on Polydor.
Shura is set to play London's Shepherds Bush Empire on 26 May, and has support slots with Marina and The Diamonds and Chvrches locked in.
The song was given its debut as Annie Mac's Hottest Record In The World, and is out now - for the first time ever. Listen below, and check out the Talib Kweli take after via a "Take On Me"-style vid.
