Coco Jones "Why I Didn't Tell You"

Coco Jones has released "Why I Didn't Tell You," the deluxe version, following its initial drop which came November 4, 2022. The deluxe version adds four new tracks to the EP and features the singles “Caliber,” “ICU,” and the Babyface collaboration, “Simple.”

This project is a testament to the continued relevance and vitality of the R&B genre. While it has been trendy to say R&B isn’t the same, there are artist who come along and sometimes slip under the radar but are able to captivate and showcase great R&B. Jones's "Why I Didn't Tell You" is a must-listen for fans of R&B and is highly recommended for anyone looking for a powerful and emotive listening experience.

"ICU," stands out for its raw and vulnerable lyrics that explore the pain of unrequited love. The song's production is also noteworthy, blending contemporary R&B beats with a touch of nostalgia. Another standout track on the album is "Caliber," the first single released from the project. The song showcases Jones's powerful vocals and showcases a more upbeat and confident side of her artistry. The catchy chorus and upbeat production make it a perfect song to dance to, and the lyrics about self-empowerment make it an anthem for listeners.

Favorites include “No Chaser,” and “Spend It.” "No Chaser," a sultry and sensual song that demonstrates Jones's vocal prowess. The song's production is minimalistic and puts the focus on Jones's vocals, allowing her to showcase her range and control. "Spend It" has smooth and seductive production, as well as its catchy and relatable lyrics. The song is about living in the moment and enjoying life, the lyrics and overall vibe is lighthearted and carefree, it's a perfect song to play in a party or a night out with friends.

Overall, Coco Jones's new project "Why I Didn't Tell You" is a well-crafted collection of R&B songs that showcases the artist's vocal range and emotional depth. Here's yet another project that proves R&B is alive and thriving.
