Hotly tipped as one of the faces to watch in 2003, Jody Lei is being groomed as the new R&B sensation, and she acquits herself well on this debut single.
Although more poppy than the likes of Alicia Keys or Ms Dynamite, this is nevertheless a bright soulful track with an infectious hook. She shares Craig David's irritating habit of namechecking herself in the chorus, but that's forgivable in a record this catchy.
Having toured with Blue and performed with Wyclef Jean, there's obviously a ready made audience for Jody Lei's brand of poppy soul. Place your bets for next year's Brit nominations.
