Album Review

Intentionally released in time for Valentine's Day, 26-year-old Hawaiian singer-songwriter Anuhea Jenkins' unashamedly romantic second album, For Love, sounds like it should be the aural equivalent of a particularly slushy rom-com. Thankfully the Maui-born songstress has avoided the temptation to drench her lovelorn lyrics with sickly sweet melodies and schmaltzy strings, and instead has impressively managed to produce a genuinely warm and effortlessly summery record which might even charm those who curse the Feb 14 celebrations. Largely guided by producer Dwight Baker (Kelly Clarkson, Enrique Iglesias), there are a few ventures into his more familiar glossy pop territory, such as the staccato acoustic hooks and bubbling acidic bass-lines of "Mr. Mellow," and the slinky club-oriented crunk of "I Wanna Be There," both of which recall the faceless mid-00s R&B of Cassie, Ciara and Christina Milian. But For Love is far more enchanting when it soaks up the sounds of her island background, whether it's the laid-back beachside folk of "Simple Love Song," the timeless Lovers' Rock of "Crown Royal," and Estelle cover "Come Over Love," or the breezy reggae-pop of "Higher Than The Clouds" and "Moving On," while the strutting tango of "Fight For Me Tonight" and the stripped back piano-led balladry of closer "What Am I Doing?" showcase Anuhea's delicately soulful Alicia Keys-esque vocals in all their glory. A quietly seductive affair, For Love suggests that when it comes to the ‘female Jack Johnson' label, Colbie Caillat may now have some competition. ~ Jon O'Brien, Rovi

Customer Reviews

The best Hawaiian thing since Loco Moco...

... or Spam musubi? In any case, great album, awesome sophomore effort! I suppose I should write about her talent and voice and blah blah blah, but really, I'd rather spend my time just listening to this album; I could definitely make a day out of grooving to this album while drinking some crown and eating Spam musubi.

AWESOME!

Finally! I've been waiting awhile for this to drop. Great album and a lovely woman!

Anuhea = Awesome!

A brilliant second record from Hawaii's hottest new star. 13 must be her lucky number, because every single track is awesome. Anuhea's first record was great, this one is over the top great! You go girl!
