A Soulful Mix of R&B and Spirituality

What really caught my attention about "I Know You Love Me" is the way that so many styles of music are seamlessly melded into this one song. Ebony Jackson has found a way to piece together R&B, soul, pop, jazz, and her spirituality in a way that makes this song so amazingly accessible. She sings about such universal topics, never leaving out the role that her faith plays in her life. Her voice is very expressive - appropriate for conveying such spirituality - yet she never over embellishes her singing style.
