(January 13, 2025) Candace Woodson has carved out a richly versatile slot in the realm of modern soul over the past decade. Utilizing her resilience through personal struggles as a launching force for her solo endeavors, she’s delivered meaningful R&B with singles ranging from the self-empowering “The Answer Is No” to the introspective “(Trying to Be) Perfect.”
On her new single, “Your Love,” Woodson fuses the melodic and rhythmic sensibilities of her ballads and uptempo work into a mellifluous dance groove produced by Alex Fanjul. Sweely soaring sax riffs accentuate the lightly pulsating track and Woodson’s vibrant self-harmonizing. The straightforward message of romantic appreciation resonates seamlessly with the funky bass line and true-to-life passages of admiration and joy. Woodson’s jazzy alto tones carry the lines with a sleek decorum, resulting in another satisfying single in her growing discography of purebred R&B.
Take a First Listen to “Your Love” and start off 2025 on a positively groovin’ note.
