India Arie ‘Just Do You’ Single Review



Leave it to India Arie to give an explosive second single off the hit album SongVersation, a record that uplifts, encourages, and makes you want to jump up, scream, shout, shimmy and shake all over the streets care free with her new single “Just Do You”. The title of the track is exactly what the song embodies. This inspirational track is all about self empowerment.


“I heard a voice that told me, I’m essential, how all my fears are limiting my potential…”


India Arie opens the song with core vocals that will certainly make your heart want to scream. Her low tones are essential to her brand as an artist. Not even 10 secs into the song and already you notice her vocal artistry. Before the lyrics even start, you want more!

The production is amazing, the bass is bumping and it’s easy on the 1s and 2s. Some would call this good ol’ fashion cookout music, which is a huge part of the Afrikan culture in America.

“So whatchu waiting on? Who you waiting for? If you don’t take a chance you’ll never know what’s in store… Just do you! somebody’s got to be a star! Just do you! Somebody’s got to raise the bar…”

“If you create the game, then you create the rules, and if you just be you, there’s no way you can loose…”
