Brigit Jackson
From the hot spring of talent in ATL comes multitasking singer-producer-arranger Brigit Jackson, crafting a seductive midtempo groover with “Change,” skittish percussive action kicking the track forward like it has caffeine jitters. It feels like it needs a fuller instrumental production—swells and changeups instead of repetitions—but I like how Jackson treats her voice. “Take Me There” applies a Kanye-approved production gimmick that’ll fast be played out—string washes with what sounds like a sped-up soul sample in the background—yet it still manages to sound fresh here in all its derivativeness. Finally, the strong neo-soul statement of assertiveness “Let Me Be Me” completes the package, Jackson showing herself to be very professional, very canny, very in touch with contemporary trends. And very much recommended, though it wouldn’t be a bad thing for her to entrust her productions to others with ideas of their own.
