Queen B's Spotlight: Tori Kelly - "Unbreakable Smile"
After her single, "Nobody Love" Tori Kelly has launched to the forefront of pop music that continues with her debut album "Unbreakable Smile."
The singer released an EP, "Handmade Songs" before being signed to capitol records and releasing another EP "Forward." The debut album for Tori Kelly, "Unbreakable Smile" highlights Kelly's magnificent voice and writing prowess.
Kelly starts the album off with an introductory song, "Where I Belong." The song is just a run down of what most people have already seen from her at the Billboard's and recently the Canadian music video awards, Much. Kelly is a girl with her guitar singing about what she relates to. With a giggle, Kelly brings one song to an end and begins "Unbreakable Smile." It's pretty much like any other, I've-decided-to-get-into-pop-even-if-they-keep-rejecting-me song. She's going to do it her way with a smile on her face that won't break with bad reviews. Besides being something we've heard from almost every new pop star, the song is very catchy and sets Kelly with a lot of ground rules for herself in the business. Only the future will tell if Kelly will stick to the resolve she makes in this song.
"Nobody Love," the single that launched her into the mainstream view. With a back beat that's reminisce of Natasha Bedingfield's "These Words," this song will be the one you remember the most. Kelly deals with the hesitation of falling deeply in love with someone. She's played this song with just her guitar at award shows, and while that sounds nice, the addition of drums, brass, and back up vocals makes for an even more memorable song, especially the last minute of the song.
"Expensive" and "Should've Been Us," were made available before the albums release. "Expensive," features Daye Jack and explores the notion that money doesn't buy love and that just being loved makes Kelly feel like she's worth a million bucks. "Should've Been Us" is the song about regretting a break-up, everything is clearly stated in the song's title.
"First Heartbreak" is the first slow song of the album. It's also the first song that fully brings out what Kelly promised in her introduction, the song is mainly just her and her guitar. Her voice sounded wonderful in the songs before but it really shines in this song. The song is full of emotion as well, not about having her heart already broken but that worry that comes from the fear that it might get broken. "I Was Made For Loving You" features songwriter of the year, Ed Sheeran. Of course this collaboration is very guitar heavy with the occasional presence of strings and percussions, giving it a folk sound. Kelly and Sheeran's voices mess well together and the lyrics stay true to both songwriters styles. An automatic favorite.
"City Dove" keeps the mellow sound but takes the album out of the theme of love. This song gives power to uncertainty. Kelly doesn't have it all figured out but as long as she's on a path that keeps her free and flying is good enough for her. The imagery of a dove in the city paired with the gentle music makes for a beautiful tune. "Talk" steadily ramps up with a steady and powering drum beat. Which works greatly with Kelly's irritation with people who are all talk and no action. "Funny (Live)" is an acoustic song that's purely Kelly and her guitar. The title of the song is more out of irony, as the lyrics contemplate the things that go wrong.
"Art Of Letting You Go" brings the love back, well more like trying to end love. It is also an art the Kelly obviously hasn't mastered. The song details all the reasons why she should let them go but that she just can't. "California Lovers" features LL Cool J. An R&B sound about being in love in Cali. Cool J keeps with the theme of the song in his verse so it adds to hiphop and R&B sound and together it's the musical equivalent of summer. "Falling Slow" adds a gospel quality that has been faint in some of Kelly's earlier songs. "Anyway" closes the album out with a song about being true to yourself when in a relationship, if they like it or not.
"Unbreakable Smile" is definitely Kelly's break into the industry. Every song is catchy in a memorable way. Even songs that aren't quite that catchy have a soul and emotion to them that will surly give her a hand in success. Kelly has a presence in her songwriting and voice that make her a treat to listen to, especially in the songs where it's just her and her guitar.

Queen B's iTunes Favorites
Queen B's Top 5
1. Bitch Better Have My Money - Rihanna
Rihanna released her 2nd single for her upcoming eighth studio album "Bitch Better Have My Money". I love this song. I find the song catchy. If I were in the club this would be my jam. "Bitch Better Have My Money" reached the top-ten in eight countries, including New Zealand and France, as well as the top-twenty in six more countries including the United States and Australia
Certified Platinum in the US. No surprise to me. Not only is the song dope as hell, but the video was crazy. I think this is right up Rihanna ally. Remember she is a bad girl. So I can not wait for her 8th album to come out if it will sound like "BBHMM".
2. Cool for the Summer - Demi Lovato
3. Do It Again - Pia Mia feat. Chris Brown & Tyga
Pia Mia makes the leap from YouTube sensation to credible pop star look easy with “Do It Again.” A sultry collaboration with Chris Brown and Tyga about a different kind of one-night stand, the looming summer smash is quickly racking up spins on rhythmic radio and steadily creeping up iTunes. It heavily samples the song "Let's Do It Again" (2010) by J Boog. This song is so catchy. Iprobably played it like 7x in a row. The video was pretty good as well.
4. Good For You - Selena Gomez
"Good for You" follows Gomez's recent streak of heavily adult themed material as she moves away from her days as a Disney starlet on Hollywood Records. With a guest verse from A$AP Rocky, who raps that he's not trying to ruin her look or reputation, Gomez finally sounds and feels like the 22-year-old artist that she is. the meaning of the song, taking ownership of her sexuality as a young woman and recording her upcoming “transition album,” which she says is her most creatively involved work to date. "Good For You" is the lead single on Gomez's forthcoming album, which follows Stars Dance as well as the compilation album For You. Buzz for the track sent it to No. 1 on the Billboard. I love the song its very grown up for her so I am proud of her for it.
5. If I Don't Have You - Tamar Braxton
If you’re lovelorn and in the mood for a good cry (or perhaps an all-out profound wail), the please-don’t-leave-me tune could be just the ticket.Even though the Future collaboration “Let Me Know” was the official lead single, according to the press release “If I Don’t Have You” is the official lead single. As a single, the 38-year-old’s full vocal range over an understand arrangement is in full effect. Love her or hate her, you will get your life when she hits those high notes! This video is probably one of my favorites though.
