An electric soul on a gripping voice.
Musically
speaking a concept album, Devotion infuses
an intimately urban ambiance which will slip through the cracks of your
imagination. Consistent in style and sung with confidence, each song reinforces
the impression that Ware is reaching her goal. This is the product of a
professional singer-songwriter, stripped-down to the purest rendition, with a
lush voice rather than lush vocals and a sound that steadily follows its way. The
clever beats merge the electric, pop and soul genres together but are soulful
enough to be noticed without taking over. “Imagine us” and “Running [disclosure remix]” are the only tracks which do not blend well her voice and the music, as
if Ware and her producers had a sound and just borrowed her voice to fit it;
those two pieces feel much more pop and this is clearly not where Ware’s talent
shine. By contrast, “Wildest moments” and “Night light” shine so brilliantly that
they even won over my mother… Pearl
