Whatever comes to mind when you think about sass, charisma, and talent is exactly what Bunny Daniels is. I’ve listened to female artists that can pack quite a powerful punch when it comes to R&B, soul, and pop, but Bunny stands out as someone who owns her craft. She is her music, and her music is her—attempting to differentiate between the two would lead to epic failure. And it’s not just the way she sings passionately and writes wholeheartedly; her readiness to convey vulnerability is always palpable, and she has proven on more than one occasion that she can deliver some Grammy-worthy songs…I mean listen to her “Mute” song and tell me about it!
The musical fruit is ripe, and those with their best appetites are enjoying the delectably juicy “Up All Night,” an anthem that was made for those kinds of unforgettable nights where celebrations are at a brim and you can think nothing beyond the night you’re having…simple to say, all-caution-has-been-thrown-to-the-wind kind of nights!
The introduction has an inescapably sweet nostalgia to it that kind of throws you back to that golden age of R&B, and before you’re done being fascinated by such nostalgia, the track cleverly adopts a contemporary appeal with the mellifluous yet vibrant beats that hit right in the spot.
And this is before we can take into account Bunny’s mellifluent and angelic vocals as she sings gently, soulfully, and emotively, her words painting a vivid picture of what the song is all about.
The track’s chorus, mantra-like, sticks in the mind long after the song is no more. This means that this track is addictive; the kind that music practitioners recommend!
A healthy dose of that nostalgic R&B with vibrant appeal, “Up All Night” feels like something you’ve interacted with but is still so hauntingly unfamiliar you want to fall in love with it.
Stream, add the song to your playlist, and…how about you tell us the way it makes you feel, right? Sounds like a deal? It does, exactly!
