Some women – and some R&B singers – will agonize over a rocky relationship for an eternity before cutting loose a fella who isn’t living up to their expectations. Unsigned up-and-comer (and first-time featuree) Jazzy is not one of them. On new single Just for the Record, making its world premiere on our front page, the SoCal-bred soul songstress tells a guy who’s been walking all over her that he’s stepped over the line, and briskly shows him the door. Over Rob Holladay‘s sizzling synth-handclap production, the singer showcases an assertive attitude that, along with the strong songwriting of The Write Chix, J Doe, & Kay Kola, set this single apart from the pack. With the pop appeal on display here, could Jazzy’s big break be far off? For now, those who like what they’re hearing can look forward to more fresh tunes on her Beauty & the Beat LP, set for independent release on May 5.

This song first appeared on the R&B / Pop Chart on May 3, 2010

While there is nothing jazzy about this debut feature from Jazzy, there is a lot to like. Her voice works well for the radio, the Rob Holladay production is catchy, and the chorus will certainly have you singing along if you listen several times. With all that said, I hope Jazzy is capable of much much more.

Holladay did a great job on the beat. Jazzy really does have an amazing voice on this one. I was more than pleased with this one.

Definitely a track that all ladies can relate to and will love to claim as their "theme song". I love how strong and independent she portrays herself to be in it and can appreciate the vocals and beat. Hope to hear more :))

Haha yeah this was from K. Young's Luv Drunk song, but she does this track justice just as K. Young did. The extra contribution to the beat near the end of the song was pretty tight. I can't complain, I loved every bit of this record. Rob Holladay makes some of the sickest beats, especially when he works with Berg and K. Young. This is no exception. I loved it on K. Young's version and I love it on this version.

Jazzy has a real nice voice. I am kind of surprised I have never heard of her before, but then again that is what the booth is good for. Hook was nice, verses were nice, in the end what more could you want. "Just for the record" this was an outstanding track.

Def. something i'd hear on the radio, her vocals are smooth but I don't think shes a match for the production being used here.

Ohhhh it's a banger!! Jazzy sounds so comfortable on this track. All the usual female animosity is left out and her lyrics do the walking with her. A little iffy on the long outro but the beat is amazing. Ahhh let's hear again!

Nothing bad to say at all honestly...Production was good...She can sing...and thats all I need to say. If this is her coming out party then so be it because this is a good solid first hit! Not something I will be listening too but if it's on the radio I know I wouldn't suffer hearing it.

Just for the record folks never judge a book by its title!

Adhering to the formula of what else is on the radio, even though she pleased me with her vocals and shows there's potential to do better. So disappointed!

Outro was my favorite part.

The Keri Hilson comparisons are dead one. Not that she sounds "like" her, but that she's got a very marketable, very smooth voice that extraordinarily flexible. Nothing wrong with that, but like a lot of other people here, I'd like to really hear what she's got. I don't need Marian falsettos, but give me something.

By the way, I could use a little more r&b on the Booth. Who else agrees?

Loving this right here. The production is crazy, and as always Jazzy laid the vocals down.

Such a refreshing voice. Can't wait for the mixtape.

Dope beat. Sexy voice. Yet i feel like its missing something a bit more to be a banger? Dont worry, Weezy will eventually take care of it unless T.I. beats him to the punch. Of Course.

Really good production on this one. Vocals were lacking a bit and she's not the best singer. Girls will have the chorus known and singing to it. She did what she had to do to get on the market, but not much more.

What is wrong when you have really nice vocals but still the song doesn't hit?

I can enjoy this if it's playing, but as soon as another song comes, I'll forget this.
The production has a nice vibe and rhythm (it's cool when it breaks down some features), it could use a better melody though.
