Proof of God
The album wasn't new, and like others here, I could've gotten it for free.
But in a world where children are no longer safe with their own parents, earthquakes are everywhere, and no one sings about anyting other than degrading sex and hate - I needed something more...my very SOUL yearned for something warm and smooth, full of rythm and love, comforting like my grandmothers arms when she knows I'm down - and that's why I bought the album.
A song here or there on the radio wasn't enough. I spent an entire work day "YouTubing" her, just to keep the blessed vibes near me. Yea, I'm 29, but I recognized her smile, and her intelligence, and her joy...it was me back in the day (at least in the mirror with my brush), when good music existed and you had to know how to "sang" to get a record deal. When you could shut fake singers down with the power to run notes they couldn't even hear, in sequences that machines couldn't even comprehend.
God held Jazmine's head in His hands, kissed her on both her ears. Then placed His palm on her heart and blew His breath into her lungs. Finally, He sang her a song that only SHE can mimic. Through angels, He delivered her onto us in earth as Proof that He is Master of Creation.
Her gift is proof.
Look at the way she smiles when she sings. Tilts her head up to Him a little - sometimes closing her eyes. It feels good to her down to her core and other places no scientist or doctor can ever explain. Love.
I'm grateful for you Jaz. You are what has been depleted from this world. Oh yea, God exists, and He wants to show everyone through your voice, your joy, your power. Why? Because of Love.
And I'm in Love with Jazmine Sullivan! I'm in Love with this album! I can't wait for more of her to shine! Thank you Jaz!!
