Jackie Boyz certainly take their sweet time between Booth features—their last, Winning Isn’t Easy, hit our front page way back in 2010—but when the multi-Platinum singer/songwriter duo do find time to bless our eardrums with a new record, they rarely disappoint. Los and Stevie‘s latest effort, album lead single Norma Jean, recounts the twosome’s narrow escape from the clutches of a homicidally jealous ex-lover. The Boyz collaborate with C-Minor and Mike Khalil behind the mixing boards, pairing an tongue-in-cheek flip of the intro from Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell’s Ain’t No Mountain High Enough with a blistering, dancefloor-ready rhythm section. Feeling it? This is just one of many “progressive soul” bangers to be found on Jackie Boyz’ Body of Work LP, scheduled for release in summer 2013.

I like how they incorporated Aint no Mountain high Enough... I never get tired of that song and it guaranteed a great beat. I noticed a little dubstep action going on towards the middle/end of the song which was a nice addition. Overall I'm feeling this track and I like Jackie Boyz.. Their style is different

" Ain’t No Mountain High Enough" is a classic - and I am not usually in favor of f**king with the classics - but the Jackie Boyz' flip really works. Super catchy and it should introduce a whole new generation to some a-list oldies.

Nice uptempo beat, a little too uptempo for me though. Their vocals sound good but I feel it would be better if the beat were a bit slower.

Solid work from these boys. The vocals on this track were stellar and really are really indicative of how much farther these guys can go with their music. Loved the inclusion of the sample as well. Beat definitely had that fun, addictive quality sound to it. Good stuff.
