While ‘The BoyZ’ cook up a sophisticated blend of soul funk jazz & Afro-Cuban rhythms, Bonnie emanates a cool and sexy ambience reminiscent of SADE herself whilst capturing the essence of her undeniable, smooth vocal textures. Featuring Smooth Operator, Your Love Is King, The Sweetest Taboo, Hang On To Your Love, By Your Side, Is It A Crime, Cherry Pie, the meaningful ‘Why Can’t We Live Together’ and grooving ‘When Am I Gonna Make A Living’.
