(March 18, 2021) Take this gem of truth directly from a sister who knows: there’s just something special about those Southern brothers: whether it’s that slight hint of twang, their unhurried gait or the straightforward delivery used when they step to a lady, showering her with buttery praise as they make it clear that what she’s got is what they want. There’s a difference between spitting entry-level game to gauge interest and finally having to, well, show and prove. And that’s what the duo H-Town sets out to do with their latest single from the just-released EP Date Night, “Super Love.”
Incorporating their familiar 90s-honed approach—the croon and the 808—–with present-day ‘drip,’ Darryl “G.I.” Jackson and Solomon “Shazam” Conner lace the ballad “Super Love” with promises of a happily-ever-after… at least for the night, that is: “I’ve been waiting patiently, slow lovin’ like R&B/Don’t you run away from me, why don’t you wait and see.” Dino Conner may be missing from them in body, but his swagger and spirit remain an integral part of the signature H-Town sound.
The approach, the action, the aftermath. H-Town has always been a collective that’s explored the ups and downs of relationships, but with Spring just around the corner, why not start with the first bloom of romance? Everybody’s got their own tastes, but Shazam and G.I. are pretty confident that their flavor of “Super Love” will have just the amount of Southern flavor you need for a sweet start.
