Most, if not all tracks are written with Ronald Jefferson who, like Wright, lives in Shreveport, LA.

There are several good tracks, but rather than list them all the ones that appealed most are "Dancing With You", "Lost And Found", "Special Kind Of Love" (feat. Jeter Jones & RnB Pooh) and "God Bless The Day".

Sara Marie Barron [2022] - Angel Numbers [Self Released] (Full EP)

Four years into her career, Detroit's Sara Marie Barron, having released a dozen singles and two full albums ("Sad, But True" (2018) and "Existential Glam" (2020)), released her first EP "Angel Numbers" on 19 Aug 2022.

The EP includes two new songs and her last single "Three Hours" (5 Aug) and a single from April "Subdued" . It kicks off with a dance oriented track "Subdued", settles into a nice neo soul tune "Choose Between" followed by a ballad "Three Hours" and closes with another neo number "Shiver".

Sara states that she "aspires to bridge the grace and gusto of 60's soul (Etta James, Nina Simone), and the exuberance and panache of Motown's icons up to contemporary influences from the indulgent (even fun) melodrama and winsome swagger of 90's pop stars (Britney, Christina) and recent R&B/neo-soul dynamos (Alicia Keys and Amy Winehouse, particularly)".

Izetta Thompson [2022] - What A Mighty God [Self Released]

Izetta Thompson releases what appears to be her third single since 2019. They are all quite different with the last one sounding distinctly country. The latest one "What A Mighty God" (released on 2 Oct) is obviously gospel but with a contemporary, dance rhythm.

Aisyla Arriet [2022] - Villain [Self Released] (Full EP)

Guess what? Aisyla Arriet is yet another new artist from Atlanta, GA. She seems to have emerged last year and has thus far released three singles since her first "Cheating And Lying" in May 2021 with the other two "All's Well" and "Superman" appearing only in the last month. and now presents her first EP "Villain".

I quite like all the songs although in places her voice sounds a little naïve, so perhaps she's quite young, but it a way that adds to the charm. The standout for me is the soulful title track "Villain" but I suspect that most will go with "Do It To Me".
