Michon Young [2024] - Love Is My Lane [Self Released] (Full Album)


Since her last album "#mysweetness" almost exactly a year ago on 28 Apr '23', Michon Young has released two singles. The first a cover of the Glady Knight & The Pips classic "Neither One Of Us" with Frank MComb (Jun '23) and the other "Bounce Back" (19 Jan '24). 

The latter is included on her new album "Love Is My Lane" and a music video is included below. Frank McComb features on the standout track "You Give Me a Purpose". Other guest appearances come from Chicago smooth jazz saxophonist Audley Reid (now resident in Vegas) and  Marvin Winans on the closing track "The Promise Pt. 2". Michon began her career with Marvin Winans as his backing singer and sang on his debut album "Alone but Not Alone" (2007).

We think that the new album is her best for a while with several standouts. As well as "You Give Me a Purpose" with Frank MComb we'd highlight "Pull" and "Lovely" as our go to tracks but to be fair we could choose several other tracks as the whole album can be played from start to finish without disappointment.

This album stands alongside some of the best of the year so far i.e. Sy Smith, Ricky Jones, TMF and others we highlighted at the beginning of the month "SoulStrutter top 15 Albums of 2024" as we consider it the best album of April for sure.
