Soulful Soundz Gives Us Something To Love

R&B music is an interesting beast. Just in my lifetime alone, I’ve seen it go from overtly sexual to neo soul and Hip Hop infusions and just bare bones love songs. However, it’s always refreshing to know true R&B music when you hear it. No one has to tell you. You can just feel it. This is exactly what happened to me this weekend when I heard Something To Love, the latest release from the group, Soulful Soundz.

The whole project has a very mellow and grown and sexy type of vibe. Although the songs are very cohesive, there are some layered elements sprinkled throughout Something To Love. For instance, “Sweet Dream” featuring N’Dygo Jonez & Rueben Lael is a sensually charged offering that detours from the majority of the album in terms of explicit lyrics.

“Get Down” featuring Quentin Moore, ushers in the funk reminiscent of classic Parliament days. There’s a feeling that the songs included on Something To Love have been here before, which isn’t a bad thing at all. The group massages equal parts of love towards the intricate instrumentation as it does its lush vocals. “To Be Loved” has a more classic R&B feel, while the title track serves up hints of jazz throughout.

Soulful Soundz has delivered an album that does something many artists dream of. I was able to play Something To Love in its entirety without skipping or rushing through any of the tracks. In fact, about half of the songs on the CD are definitely repeat worthy. If you’re into a mature, yet cool style of R&B, you should give this one a listen.
