The Lady Wray – Smiling / Make Me Over was one of the most positive soul singles of 2016. The single serves as a as a reminder to keep our heads up and to keep a smile on our faces in order to deal with whatever life has planned for us. Bubblegum pop meets gritty classic soul.

Smiling is an instant feel good anthem serving as a reminder to keep our heads up and to keep a smile on our faces in order to deal with whatever life has planned for us described by Big Crown Records and Nicole Wray. We all need to let go and move on in life. Leon Michels & Thomas Brenneck contribute in terms of production. Bubblegum pop meets gritty classic soul.

Make Me Over is a down and out tune. A lusty tale. Nicole finds herself asking for a little help so she can get a break from being strapped for cash promising to take care of her man as soon as her check comes in. She lets her guard down during the duration of the song. Her expensive taste leads to empty pockets. Make Me Over is a gritty soul song.

I rate this single 5/5*****!
