Hey everybody! Hope all is
well and that everyone had a great holiday. And speaking of holidays,
in an attempt to celebrate the spirit of the season, I figured why not
talk about one this week. Not a Holiday that we are typically accustomed
to celebrating every year, but one we know as R&B singer: J.
Holiday.
Yes, it’s been some time
since we’ve heard anything from him, and recently a new song of his
“Sing 2 U” surfaced on the net. While I’m not a huge fan of J.
Holiday, I have always liked his sound and style, and in this new song
we get a continued glimpse at what made a lot of R&B fans like him
initially.
In “Sing 2 U” J. Holiday
goes hard at the ladies. He reminisces on past R&B hits that talk
about the treasures of being with a woman and takes you back to the
days of H-Town, Jodeci, R. Kelly, The Chi-Lites, The Isley Brothers,
Marvin Gaye, and Teddy Pendergrass just to name a few.
Overall, I think this song is
decent and I do believe a lot of ladies will like it, but I don’t
necessarily think it has the potential to be a lead off single, but
fits the realm of an album cut.
Take a listen and tell me what
you think. Hot or not? It seems like J. Holiday is itching to get back
on the scene and drop a new album, but his people are still sorting
out the logistics of his return. I’m sure in time he will emerge and
crank out a few more hits.
Well thanks for taking time
out to read what I had to say this week.
Until next time y’all enjoy
