We all became acquainted
with Terri a couple of years ago when she blasted her way unto
the soul scene literally with her debut set entitled 'Untitled'.
The set garned several hit songs for her including 'Love
Fool', 'It's all good'
and 'Guess you didn't love me'
that featured rapper 'Mos Def'.
With that kind of success
under her belt, Terri who was born in London and grew up in Europe
(in Germany to be precise) went to Denmark to team up again with
the same producers for her follow-up disc and found them to be
a team of soulsters who has worked with some of the biggest names
in the pop and soul industry including Jamelia,
So Solid Crew's Asher
D and Mariah Carey.
That team would be the Copenhaniacs
who with fellow countrymen producers Soulpower
would produced her sophomore set - 'L.O.V.E'
The song I'm reviewing here
could very well be the summer anthem this year (for me at least)
the track in question is called 'This
is my time', a club anthem that gets your juices flowing
from it's first inception. The back bone of the track sees it
borrowing the 80s classic track from Dynasty'
- 'Adventures in the Sound
of Music' as Terri truly turns in a stunning vocal
performance for the masses to listen to. Very well produced, beautifully
defined, a winner all round in my books.
The album itself is out now
on Def Soul UK records and is definitely one for your shopping
list. Terri is the new breed of soul singer for the new millennium
and is gearing up to be a star in the making for years to come
- do not overleook this young lady as the song says, this is her
time (believe that). - A TYD Pick indeed.
