Our Take

In a world full of predictable beats and cookie-cutter lyrics, Nikki Giovanni's latest album, "Like A Reptile On A Pond," shines like a beacon of pure originality. This opaque blue vinyl not only looks cool spinning on your turntable, but it also delivers some seriously unique and unexpected sounds.

From the moment the needle drops on the first track, Giovanni's powerful vocals draw you in like a siren's call. Each song is a journey through her poetic lyrics, weaving tales of love, loss, and everything in between. The music itself is a melting pot of genres, blending elements of jazz, soul, and even a hint of prog rock for good measure.

One standout track is "Slithering Serenade," a haunting ballad that showcases Giovanni's vocal range and emotional depth. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love gone wrong, while the music builds and crashes like waves on a rocky shore.

Overall, "Like A Reptile On A Pond" is a triumph of creativity and talent. Giovanni proves once again why she is a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. So grab a copy of this mesmerising record, sit back, and let the music wash over you like a warm bath after a long day. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
