I Just Can’t Today – From the off there is a real cool reggae / blues vibe oozing from this exciting artist as she brings her soulful melodic vocals that just alllow this track come at us. There is a fantastic brass section that really brings this track to life as we just tap or toes to this infectious arrangement that has a punchy rhythm section that lets the tone wander and flow freely as Jessie really comes into her own, the bassline is dropping sweet cool notes that just elevate this classy composition as the mellow backing vocals really grab your attention as this ultra cool piece just lets us feel the funk element oozing from this exciting musician as she really draws you in with her incredible vocals that just take the track to another place as we just feel the music drag us onto the dancefloor and really get into the groove.
