ALBUM Review: Jarrard Anthony, READY TO LIVE
Ready To Live (2012) / JAPMEG/PURPOSE/NIA
Virginia-native Jarrard Anthony drops a dose of R&B for the soul. Ready To Live (out now) is as uplifting as it is mellow. Having had early success overseas, he is truly “Mr. Independent” for shunning several major-label deals over the years to eventually launch his own JAP Music & Entertainment Group label.
With a resume that includes sharing stages with Monica, Anthony Hamilton and The O’Jays, Anthony weaves a line of smooth jazz, R&B and acoustic soul, as he sings of family, love, inspiration, and spirituality. Enlisting the talents of fellow indie artists Eric Roberson, Darien, Jon Bibbs and Monet, Ready To Live is a solid fix of feel-good vibes for the weary soul.
Recommended spins: “Never See Her Again”, “Something Like Love” and “I Love You”.
