Donnell Isaac shares his soul touching new single, "I Didn't Know"
Review by Austin Sher
Neo soul musician, Donnell Isaac is back with an extremely impressive new single, titled “I Didn’t Know”. Join us as we take an in-depth review into our thoughts on the song, as well as some background on the artist himself.
It’s been a while since Donnell Isaac’s 2008 debut album, New Moments New Choice, but ever since then, he’s been creating massive waves within the industry. As he returns with his newest single, “I Didn’t Know”, it’s become very clear that Isaac has still got the magic, especially on this latest track. We absolutely love what we heard and can’t wait for you to check it out either.
Considering he’s been playing music since the young age of 9 years old, it’s no surprise that the evolution of his career has led us to this point. Formerly known as Donnie C, a rebranding now of Donnell Isaac has proved that a name is just a name, but the music is really where it’s at. The music that is created by Donnell Isaac touches the soul and that is the reason why he is so beloved by everyone that is exposed to his talent. Donnell has performed at numerous big events, which stretch from the south, and include the International Music Festival and Shakespeare Festival in Nashville TN. He is currently a resident of Greensboro NC, a native of Portsmouth, Virginia, and is a singer, a songwriter, and a self-taught keyboardist.
Our initial thoughts of the song are that we instantly fell in love with the smooth and sultry voice of Isaac. The gospel roots are certainly forefront, which makes for an engaging first 30 seconds. While Isaac’s voice is definitely a highlight of the song, the instrumentation also really blew us away. Mixing instruments like the organ and slide guitar to create a rich atmosphere is reminiscent of some of the best R&B/Soul tracks we’ve heard yet. To put it into a single word, the track is “lush”, meaning it makes us feel good and reassured that all is going to be ok. Isaac’s overall delivery was beautiful and the song really makes for a fantastic single into the overall discography.
We’re really looking forward to what else Donnell Isaac has in store for us in the future. We know from here on out, we’ll be keeping a close eye on his career, as we can only imagine it’s looking up from here. The moment this song gets heard by the right person, is the moment you’ll be hearing Isaac played all over the radio.
