Jori King - Promise
Artist: Jori King
Producer: Oddz.N.Endz
Album: None (Promo Single)
Label: Unsigned
Roundabout Valentine’s Day 2010, R&B neophyte Jori King made his Booth debut with the second song he’d ever completed (and his first to be released). Love at First Sight was aptly-named, winning over our resident pop-lovers with its heartfelt sound and catchy melody. Nearly a year to the day later, King’s returned to steal our hearts yet again with Promise, a newly-released promo single which finds the Cali native expressing his devotion to a special girl, in hopes that she’ll respond in kind. Over Oddz.N.Endz’ pop-appealing blend of synth chords and midtempo percussion, Jori plies the girl in question with heartfelt compliments (“Everything you do is so perfect…”) and pledges of love. In the process, he exhibits the same smooth vocal stylings and infectious songwriting that made his previous features irresistible, and the finished product is a radio-ready single chock full of, well, Promise for King’s future. But enough from me – are you head-over-heels for his latest effort? Those digging it can, as always, keep their browsers locked on the Booth for all the latest developments in this up-and-coming crooner’s career.

King consistently shows lots of PROMISE, but I still think he is a few steps away from putting it all together. Solid (and catchy) production choice from Oddz.N.Endz, but I am not sure this is memorable enough to catch ears and stick.

Nice production, I can't help but think I've heard it before... does this sample the melody of something? I like Jori, I hope he hits it big.

I'd have to agree with Z on this one. Jori's got all the skills to really make it, and he's obviously got the dedication and drive (I love artists who comment). What he needs now is to find that thing that will make him truly stand out, be it style or topic or some other factor.

This is a good introduction to me, Jori King. I love catchy r&b/pop music. This definitley represents quality music of that genre. I can see you making some serious hits with those vocals. I am only expecting improvements from here on out, don't dissapoint me.
