Stephanie has been singing her whole life and was initially inspired by her grandmother, who was a jazz musician. There is something inspirational and uplifting about “Got This Joy” that never makes itself vulnerable to coming off as cliche or cheesy. The keys, horns, and rhythm section have a nostalgic quality to past soulful records before the age of smartphones that had a sincerity to it. The genuine songwriting is refreshing while also feeling reminiscent.
“Got This Joy” is a feel-good RnB song with a great mix and solid performances. The groove is in front of the mix with strong drums and a deep bass that is front and center, providing the rhythm for Stephanie Heitz to take center stage and display her soulful and powerful voice that finds a way to also be extremely smooth.
