Mishell Ivon’ latest ‘My Sun’ featuring vocals from Jerome Brooks, Jr. and Leyla Romanova will absolutely have you starstruck after listening to its shimmering, vibrant rhythms and grooves.
The moment the song starts off you know that you are in something that truly stands out. Catchy beats soon get layered with smooth, velvet-like harmonisations, and atmospheric synths that make the song feel like a complete celebration in itself. With its grand approach to love, the song really makes you come face to face with what good love is supposed to feel like – like you are on cloud nine and you feel like everything and anything is possible as long as you have that person’s hand in yours. The song has a jazzy approach as well, with the stunning, groovy piano progressions and the solid, hook-worthy basslines. The song takes on super luscious textures that have you listening to something special, something new in every phase of the song.
The multiple vocals on the song allow for the essence of love to come forth, how it is so full, and is not something basic or easily understandable. Love is complicated and it is a complication that makes your life worthwhile, and that is the idea the song takes on with regards to love. The male and the female vocals give two perspectives in the song, making the song dialogic and also deeply cinematic at the same time, making it a perfect fit in a romantic musical’s soundtrack.
Vibrant, deeply emotive, and a true celebration of love’s greatness, you absolutely must give this song a listen.
