Music reviews of Soul Music
Music Review: Simply Superb 2nd Album...
Rating: 5 Stars
When I first bought the cd, I bought it to learn the remake of "You Are Holy" as performed by Lisa McClendon, since the radio stations in my area were playing the song in heavy rotation. The original version was performed by another Integrity Gospel group known as The Motor City Mass Choir, which featured worship leaders like Fred Hammond on the album "Shout In the House." When I heard Lisa McClendon's version, it put me in the mindframe of an India.Arie type of song. You know, with that acoustic, neo-Soul feel. Live instrumentation including the guitars, organ and keyboard combo, bass and live drums. Real music...no samples!! Every time I heard the song, it just gripped me so much that I just had to buy the cd for that song. Now, I use it regularly in my worship repertoire when I play for my church. As I learned the song, I had little idea that I would be blasting the album so often! After hearing "You Are Holy" I immediately was amazed when the beat of "Hey Now" dropped! Based on Ecclesiastes 3, the song's pulsating bass line and soothing midtempo electric piano melody was surrounded by an awesome arrangement of vocals and proper placement of lyrics like, "A time to kill, time to heal, a time to tear it all down and a time to build. But today I'm gonna laugh myself to life..." Very strong elements. It led me to her title track, "Soul Music." This song was produced exceptionally well and coupled with yet again, a very strong lyrical content and a tasty, midtempo beat. Other songs include, the remake to "Breathe," "Go" (these two songs embody a heavy Lauryn Hill influence), the jazzy "Old School," "Stuck," the smoothly-arranged "Has Anybody Seen Love," "More Than A...," "Accountability," the effervescent "Capture," "Grace..." (WHEW!) I mean, the whole album is great for listening and there is a personal message in every song. What is also catching is the way she presents her lyrics. This is deeper than just choruses, bridges, and verses. Instead, she uses words like 1st Thought, Serenade, Mood, Genesis, Psalm, Proclamation, Impression. This is a very deep way to interpret and alter the atmosphere of a song. This follow-up to "My Diary, Your Life" is definitely a solid work of sheer quality and creativity. Artists like Erykah Badu, India.Arie, Jill Scott, Musiq, Alicia Keys, Floetry and others in the neo-Soul genre better take notice in the strength of this album. This album has the style of the artists aforementioned but the only difference is the connotation of each song and its deep connection with ministry. Every Christ bloodwashed believer must understand that you can have a powerful message with music that captivates and enlightens the spirit and not necessarily sound straight traditional. (i.e. Canton Spirituals, Albertina Walker. Nothing wrong with them, they are pioneers!!) Let albums like this saturate your spirit and enrich your soul as the melodies and lyrics work together to pierce your heart and remain firmly implanted in your imagination. Like the lyrics say, "lyrically shape me, melody embrace me. Give me my Father's direction, heavenly affections...music for my soul." "Soul Music" is definitely a keeper and a simply superb 2nd effort by Lisa McClendon.
