Soul the music of generations in America and the United Kingdom, embodying rhythm & blues with a smoothness that drove the music industry. Artists such as Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Phyllis Hyman and Anita Baker were original (or organic) soul artists. Now soul or neo soul has made a comeback in the U.S. and U.K. due largely to the popularity of artists such as Eryka Badu,
India Aire, Jill Scott and Angie Stone. Gwendolyn Joy describes her sound as urban adult contemporary with jazzy undertones. Tired of the rap music devoid of character and morals, she writes
songs from a positive consciousness. Family centred Gwendolyn makes Detroit her home because as she puts it, this is where my spiritual and musical family reside.
Her success began at an early age, when inspired by vocalists such as Nancy Wilson, Ella Fitzgerald, and Aretha Franklin she belted out songs for her family and friends to hear. She continued her musical education throughout her high school years and later turned her talents to the pursuit of a degree in journalism. This balance of music and writing skills is definitely a marriage made in heaven
as Gwendolyn says, Having something to say while singing is just as important as hitting all the right notes. Now, at the forefront of the U.K. soul movement Gwendolyn Joy is a unique artist
who has kept the soul music fires burning bright. Her vocals display a maturity found in the original soul singers, but with a freshness musically found with today's soul singers.
Her lyrical approach to song writing illustrates great depth and dimension or as she puts it, A song should say something. There are no lurid ooh baby, I just wanna do ya songs here. Gwendolyn is a woman with a point of view, and prides herself on being a craftsman versed in the art of true song writing. The album Love Is…, is a collection of such works. The opening cut, "Vanilla Tree", loosely chronicles life as an interracial child growing up in a racially divided America. I Surrender ,In the Looking Glass, and "Where Do We Go From Here", are reflective songs about the dimensions of love relationships. In the song "Father's Eyes" she shares with her listening audience the phrases of concern and love from the eyes of a parent. Simple Message, Let's Get Real, and Up and Down are commentaries of social issues affecting our society today. "Help Me", and "Just a Little Lovin," take on new meaning with her own unique interpretations. "What I See In You" written by a very talented close family friend, is a tribute children who have the incredible ability to see the world without fear or prejudice, and finally, "Love is", the song spoken and sung in poetic verseto put the proverbial icing on the cake, because as she says Love is the most natural, most important human emotion in the world. So why do we fight it? I just don't know. Expansion Records
