Sexy Track: “Ouch That Hurt” by Dionne Bromfield
1
Many people think that Dione Bromfield is a product of Amy Winehouse‘s imagination. But, that is not the least true. With the rate she is going, she could easily be one of the biggest stars of the decade. Here we see Dionne Bromfield trying to continue the legacy of a genre that died too early, like Jackswing. If there was a natural continuation of Motown, it would be Dionne Bromfield’s Good To The Soul. One this song specially, Bromfield brings the traditional beats with a modern mentality with coquettish lyrics. It brings back puppy love like no other and makes you feel all warm and loved-up inside. This should be the next single!
