A songwriter and southern belle with a professional resume that most newbies could only dream of, Latrese Bush has cultivated her performance skills and sparkling soprano on stages around the world. She’s backed pop titan Justin Bieber, soul and stage veteran Jennifer Holiday, new school R&B man Bobby V and disco diva Gloria Gaynor and recorded with the legendary Bar-Kays, and she’s now aiming to create her own spotlight with “Because of You,” the new single from an upcoming full-length CD.
A bubbly, lovestruck uptempo groove that pairs Bush with the certified soul crooner Noel Gourdin, “Because….” spells out the excitement and apprehension created by man who stirred up her sleeping love and leaves her feeling “kinda scared” of how intense their bond has become.
The music is danceble, the lyrics are expressive and joy radiates from Latrese’s delivery. The way the South Carolina native duets with—rather than competes against—Gourdin’s rich tenor reminds listeners of what they enjoyed in her debut 2014 EP “The Best” and the skills that will continue to grow Bush’s name and audience apart from her more famous peers.
