Jhene Aiko is an amazing artist, in my opinion. Her music gives off positive vibes while making you reflect back on life at the same time. She puts anything and everything from the depths of her soul in her songs which makes her audience relate to her in all of her music. Her voice is soothing and calms someone on even the worst of days.
Did I mention that she's drop dead gorgeous? If you are ever wondering what I'm playing in my earbuds, 99 percent of the time I am jamming out to Jhene. And here's why:
1. She Speaks The Truth
Jhene Aiko is becoming the voice that each female has suppressed at least once, and speaks from the depths of her soul. "Spotless Mind" is a pretty good representation of the beautiful songs she creates.
2. Turn up
You could listen to her music and collaborations to get pumped up at any time, have you heard the song "Post To Be" featuring Omarion and Chris Brown? Its pretty much played at every party or gathering if you have not. To try and not to dance to this song is near impossible.
3. Chill Out
When you are in the mood to relax just play her entire "Souled Out" album and you will be all set for the rest of your day. "Bed Peace" featuring Childish Gambino is an uplifting and relaxing song to chill out to. The beats she uses are usually always mellow and seems to trigger something in your head that quickly lifts your spirits.
4. Need To Cry?
Have you gone through a break up, or just need to let your emotions flow? Her songs can help with that too. I highly recommend "The worst" and "Comfort Inn Ending". She has a way of putting all of those jumbled thoughts in our minds into beautiful lyrics that perfectly describe the situation.
5. Amazing Quotes
Need more captions for your selfies? Her songs might as well be everyone's go to for lyrics. Every other line if not more frequent than that hides the most beautiful quotes that is easily relatable. "3:16 am" is your biggest help in this department
6. Need To Be Empowered?
Her songs can easily do that for you. I think "The Pressure" is the better representation of this. She points out the reasons to be better than what is hurting you.
"It is really out of my control, the way you feel is not my problem"
7. Creates The Best Imagery
Listening to her music creates these beautiful images in your head. "Blue Dream" makes such amazing pictures with in your mind just with the use of words.
"When you opened my eyes, made me notice where the ocean was holding the sky"
8. She Is Absolutely Gorgeous
How is it fair for someone to have this talent and be beautiful at the same time? Even when she goes without makeup or with different hair color/style she still kills any trend she rocks with no issue.
9. She Never Forgets Family
She has a song with her beautiful daughter Nami featured on it, "Promise" will melt your heart in 30 seconds. Her brother, Miyagi, sadly passed away of cancer and she mentions him in multiple songs as well as dedicating the song "For My Brother" to him.
