JKABEL does it yet again with the fantastic new track, "Anchor". Once again, this track is filled with all the things we've come to expect from this exciting artist, inspiring songwriting, superb performances, and a pure honest passion for the craft, all nicely wrapped up in a marvelous production that captures the subtle details of the track brilliantly. There is a great old-school R&B vibe to "Anchor" that gives the song heaps of character, it has that certain level of style and flair that makes you want to move to the music, and any song that manages to accomplish such a feat is obviously doing something very right. There's a great amount of rhythmic bounce to the track thanks to its brilliant use of syncopation, the subtle emphasis of the off-beats creates a great amount of rhythmic variation throughout, which helps keep the listener on their toes and results in a far more interesting and engaging listening experience from start to finish. As this is a JKABEL track, I expected nothing less of magnificent vocal performances, and of course, that's exactly what I got. Both refined and brimming with grace, the exceptionally expressive lead vocals, and stunningly detailed backing vocals, give the track its signature warmth and elegance and prove yet again that this is an artist that demands your attention. I always struggle to find things to nitpick when it comes to JKABEL tunes, and "Anchor" is no different, it just does everything very well. There's always a high level of professionalism and polish to JKABEL tracks and all I can say is, keep doing what you're doing because it works! Great stuff as usual!

Having had the good fortune of reviewing a previous track by JKABEL, I had a solid idea of the type of listening experience I was going to be experiencing with "It Will Be All Over", outstanding performances, superb production values, and enough heart and soul to go around the world twice, and I'm glad to say that this is exactly what I got, JKABEL delivers again with another powerhouse of a track, melding genres together with ease to produce a wholesome and mature piece of songwriting that is a pleasure to experience.
As you would expect with a JKABEL tune, the performances are of an incredibly high standard, filled with purpose and conviction, they effortlessly bring the tracks many ideas to life and ensure they are translated in the most effective way possible. The lead vocals lead the charge and capture that quintessential soulful aesthetic that is so utterly listenable, there is great interplay between the lead and backing vocals, lines play off one another and contrast brilliantly, adding to the already rich texture that is provided by the excellent backing band. JKABEL knows how to weave various genres together flawlessly to form an eclectic mix of styles that can appeal to a broad range of music lovers, whether that be soul, r&b, gospel, or blues, a perfect balance is always struck with tracks from this artist, and here its no exception. A superb recording nicely brings all these elements together, resulting in a production that's filled with warmth, character, and most importantly of all, personality.

 Catching attention with some passionate nylon string guitar, Desires of Your Heart by JKABEL opens spaciously and expansively. The beat moves at a moderate tempo with a strong R&B feel. As with his other performances, JKABEL sings Desires of Your Heart with a powerful passion. He finds inspiration from his faith, and uses it to lift up his voice. Lyrically, Desires of Your Heart places trust in the Lord to provide for those who have surrendered themselves to Him. The song ends with JKABEL reading passages from the book of Psalms to deliver a powerful final message. With the release of Desires of Your Heart, JKABEL puts his creativity and faith further on display with a heartfelt performance. The spacious quality of the beat is very cool. It mirrors the infinite knowledge and power attributed to God. Using a nylon string guitar is also a very nice touch!
