Eric Jaye [2021] - Soul Groove [Self Released] (Full Album)

Eric Jaye is an artist from Newport News, VA (Estee Pierce's neck of the woods), who appears to have started releasing music in 2018. 

"Soul Groove" is his debut album released on 17 Sep 2021, having four single already under his belt, one of which, "Shawty Knows" released earlier this year,  appears on the album.  

From the album cover I thought it was likely to be a smooth jazz album, it's not, but most tracks contain 'rhythmic' rapping, including both of my 'choice cuts' "Jonesin'" and "Slide".

I was going to only post those two tracks but listening again there may be other tracks that some may  appreciate as there could be a couple of 'growers' on the album. I quite like "The Great Storm In My Mind" but was put off by the psychedelic rock style guitar and "Put Me On" may be a grower. 

I think the album definitely needs a few listens to fully appreciate.
