Spiritual yet soulful

This song is gospel meets Neo soul. From the production from the smooth vocals. If Jill Scott became a gospel singer this would be the end product. For my personal taste I gave this song 4 stars. Well done. Worth the replay value. Trevor P

Shadows by Gayla James

Gayla James has a smooth jazzy easy listening sound with a message. Her vocal style on her latest release "Shadows" is reminiscent of the earlier female jazz singers such as Nancy Wilson.

Remarkable Piece of Artwork !!!

I would like to extend my congratulations to Mrs. Donna Walton on this skillfully crafted piece of gospel artwork. I was very impressed by the sound and the feel of this track along with the style and skill of the vocalist. Mixed very well, the instrumentation and the clarity on this one are great !!! It has an innovative R&B feel with that gospel flavoring all over the top of it. It truly brings back the memories of R&B back in the day and is combined very will with the newness of contemporary gospel. An outstanding performance on the part of the lead vocalist as well as the background vocals !!! A recording done very well. Congratulations on this well done piece of musical artwork !!!

Shadows

I am Lovvving this song! It could easil be a great fit in the R&B Genre. Just waiting...vocals call to mind a Roberta Flack famous singer. Your voices are a beautiful extension of the blending of vocal talents in this composition. Excellent percussion and timing of the delivery of the lyrics with the synchopation. A force to be reckoned with when the listener begins to sing this confession of faith. Every great gospel song has the power to save. This music is anointed along with the vocal talents by The LORD. Truly inspired and sent from heaven. A feast for the soul and a weapon against the dark forces warring against His Light in us.

Gospel came a long way!

I don't know much about gospel, except that it had some amazing singers. However, this seems to be an evolution of gospel music towards R&B and Hip Hop. Very smooth, professional production and beautifully performed by Gayla James. Nice.

Dope!!!!!

Wow talking about some Badu, Jill Scotte vibrations! I can feel the heart in this showing you put in some dedicated work. I like the originality!!! Sounds like the studio vibe was feeling the vibe I could sit back to this one and zone out!!!!! More artist should study the roots of their culture of art more to be better at their own art. Keep up the good work and stay in the lab creating new material to stay fresh and on your toes. Peace!

Truthful Insight

This song speaks to the nature of the world today. There is so much deceit that lingers on the edges of our lives and so few people realize what it is. What is also sad is that many don't realize how close help is, and how easily it is attained, if we but ask. The One who really cares is never pushy or overbearing and alway has our best interest in mind. This song speaks to all of that and more. Only evil lurks in the "Shadows".

Unexpected surprise

At first I hesitated to click the play button - with song sent to me by TDWGN, I expected something "gospel" and "hiphop" - both genres I'm far from being fond of. Luckily I did click and got really surprised. What I found was a chilly dreamy jazzy song - which I love. The arrangement is rather simplistic and straightforward (with nice details here and there) but in the best way possible. It creates the mood of the song and nicely supports the melody and vocals of Gáyla James - her voice is both rich and sensitive, not trying to overperform, but to deliver emotions - and succeeds. Mixed all together, Gáyla James created timeless gem worth listening again and again.
