Broadjam Artist: Sasweetie Music
Song: KW Ballard

Positive Comments: I could hear Kenny Latimore, Toni Braxton, or Jesse Powell on this track. This could be a great comeback hit for a seasoned artist- but stylistically dated- so finding new vocal artists that can work it can be a challenge… unless they are instrumentalists. I know a violinist that went viral playing on cover tracks… There is a sultry layer to this style that welcomes ‘ugly faced riffs’… and in that regard- making bigger cues for the climatic moments… It forces the soloist out of the pocket… this piece is doing what its suppose to do.
Constructive Comments: This production style is the catalyst to a very classy project. Those artists who could stand a revival (Howard Hewitt, Tony Rich, and even Joe Little from The Rude Boys) are accessible enough to make this work… so keep an open mind outside the studio mindset in terms of your network and it’s potential.
