 Ruth-Ann Brown
 Ruth Single
 Review by Gary Hill

Ruth-Ann Brown is billed as a reggae singer and this is a single from her debut album. From this song, I would agree in that label only to a small amount. There is certainly a good amount of fusion here, in the musical arrangement. There really is little reggae in the vocals to this piece, but rather more of a soulful pop sound. All in all, it’s a great song and the acapella and instrumental versions each bring a different flavor to the piece. I’d love to hear more from Ruth-Ann Brown. She has a lot of potential.
