Slighted - Angel (Retro Soul/Pop) There’s a ticking clock in Angel’s new track “Slighted”, in which she makes it very clear that if her lover doesn’t step it up, she’s heading out the door. The production is one of those timeless, retro motown swings, but instead of begging for her baby, Angel flips the typical script by letting her person know that they are going to be sorry if they don’t start showing the love and affection Angel deserves. Angel’s vocal is strong and evocative, sitting front and center in the mix, with a few moments that give us an almost Alicia Keys kind of vibe. Angel is a great storyteller and excels in this classic genre, which is made fresh in the way that Amy Winehouse did with this sound all those years ago. This would be a great track for a vinyl release.

Best Lyric: “Believe me, I’ve got options.“
