Aretha Henry Nominated for Female R&B Artist of the Year

Aretha Henry has been nominated for Female R&B artist of the Year in the Mississippi Hip Hop Culture Awards.
The Mississippi native released her fourth studio album, Mrs. Jones, in May.

The album was recently reviewed by Sleeping Bag Studios:

“Mrs. Jones has an immaculate range of style & sound that’s certain to catch the people’s attention one way or the other – and with the remarkable skills, diverse talent, and a stunningly versatile singing voice that Aretha Henry has.”

“…songs like “Bless Your Judgemental Heart” and “Hollywood” reveal that this artist is already thinking & executing on that next-level…these are tunes that have a style & approach that you’ll find others adopting as they try to catch up to where Aretha is already at now. Like I’ve been tellin’ ya from the get-go here though, the hooks are EVERYWHERE on these songs…it was something so apparent that a quick scan through instantly proved that…but to listen from beginning to end on how the full results came out, absolutely proves just how ready Aretha is for the mainstream. “Bless Your Judgemental Heart” contains one of the most understated and amazing hooks in a song that you’ll hear this year…so freakin’ subtle that it might even slip by you at first! And yet, in next to no time at all, you’ll find yourself needing this song like we all need AIR…Aretha sparkles & shines on this cut.”

The R&B Songstress spent about a year diligently working on Mrs. Jones, recording the album at 16 Bars Recording Studio in Jackson, MS.
“There was a lot that I wanted to say on this album, and I wanted to write and perform every song in a way that did justice to my journey,” stated Henry.
“This album is a bit different style-wise in that it shows a wide range of vocal dynamics with a more mature sound and lyrics. Also, my husband, Kevin ‘KJ3’ Jones, solely produced my last three albums. For this album, we brought in a Co-Producer, Donovan E. Scott. We also used a live band for ‘A Life That’s Mine.’”

The Mississippi Hip Hop Culture Awards will be held on Saturday October 26, 2019, at the ALAMO THEATER In Jackson, MS. The Red Carpet Starts at 5 pm. The Show Starts At 6:30 pm. Advance Ticket Purchases Are Highly Recommended.
