La’-Trice Anderson
Outstanding album! There’s a video also of War Love/Good Trouble. I love Jessica La Rel’s music and this fourth work of hers shows her versatility as well as varied music genres including jazz, contemporary neo soul, pop, rap, and beautiful ballads with Gospel & spiritual influences. Deep lyrics with captivating messages (Deep calleth to deep)! My favorites for now Begot & Here Comes the Sun!! Support Jessica La Rel and pass the word:
#Get Jessica La Rel’s music!
Favorite track: Begot.

The latest EP from Stephanie Santiago combines the stark moodiness of trip-hop with languid R&B melodies to thrilling effect. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 6, 2020
Modern (as opposed to retro) soul with a jazzy touch. Great voice, good songs, fantastic arrangements - very idiosyncratic approach!
The chosen favorite works best when played directly after the preceding one, Where there Is Smoke ;-) Carsten Pieper
