Keesha Blair continues her prolific rise with ‘Truth Always Shows Its Face’, a beautifully assured R&B and soul release centred on self-discovery, healing and learning to trust your own instincts.
Released through her Divine Purpose Music project, the track surrounds her reflective songwriting with warm keys, grooving bass and gorgeous layers of harmonies and ad-libs. Its wonderfully singable chorus provides an immediate melodic centre, while a more rhythmic second verse allows her writing to move with a freer, contemporary flow.
Lyrically, she explores the difficult distinction between what we desperately want to believe and what, somewhere beneath the surface, we already know. But rather than presenting truth as something confrontational, she creates a warm and spacious environment in which accepting it becomes part of the healing process.
Soulful, uplifting and beautifully melodic, the single is another impressive step forward for Keesha Blair’s rapidly expanding creative project.
