Jessie Daniels may just now be releasing her first major label project, but this 18-year-old artist is no newcomer to the industry. She’s been in the business more than half her life, since the tender age of 8, doing films, commercials, and even some off-Broadway theater. Her 12 song CD, all of which she co-wrote, "shows off Daniels as a talented, multi-faceted performer," says Lauren Summerford.

Reviewer Kevan Breitinger says, "Jessie Daniels has put together an album that burns with a true New York intensity. Her music and her delivery are direct, aggressive, and as edgy as pop gets. It is an album that both those who know God and those who don’t can enjoy, and that accomplishment in itself is impressive."

Jessie Daniels falls quite comfortably into the ever-popular pop/rock category but leaves enough room to distinguish Daniels from many of her musical counterparts. Of course, fans of the likes of Joy Williams, Bethany Dillon, Krystal Meyers, and BarlowGirl will find themselves fond of this twelve-track collection. Somehow this disc has a unique quality to it that makes it nearly impossible not to like. Lead single "The Noise," which also serves as the opening track, is proof of this considering the song quickly climbed up radio charts. Similarly, "Everyday" displays even greater potential to become a favorite on the radio waves in the near future. Both tunes are carried by Daniels' youthful energy but the forthcoming "Hold Me Now" shows the maturity of this young performer. The aforementioned track is described as a worship song by the singer, which serves as a cry for Jesus to carry her through life's hard times. Regardless of what each song may sound like, Daniels' vocals resonate through every one beautifully, presenting her with the chance of becoming one of Christian music's greatest young talents in the coming years.

While the sound of Jessie Daniels' release is completely enjoyable, it's her lyrics that make her music relevant. "Stand Out" is one of the many songs where Daniels' sings of her desire to live a life according to the ways of God rather than the ways of the world. A commitment to change one's lifestyle is the central theme of the upbeat "What Happened To Me." Though all the lyrics paired with excellent backing tracks and powerful vocals make the disc worthwhile, it's "Hello/Goodbye" that sets itself apart as one the project's best numbers. "Hello/Goodbye," which seems to be all about leaving sinful nature and selfish ways behind, is executed in a similar fashion to MercyMe's recent hit "So Long Self."relevant.
