With "Try To Be," Jason Bembry reminds us that authenticity remains one of the most potent forces in music. The New Jersey singer-songwriter, whose sound effortlessly navigates contemporary R&B, indie pop, and dance pop, offers a song that somehow manages to be both comforting and exciting, an anthem of self-examination in the chaos of modern life.
Returning after his former project "Voices in the Mirror," Bembry softens but internalizes more here. "Try To Be" feels like a softly spoken conversation between heart and mind, one that confronts you to look inside and contemplate with whom you want to stand. The song's polished production features shimmery synths and chill beats, creating a retro yet refreshed landscape that sounds perfect for cool fall nights.
Bembry's voice is lush and evocative, alternately wafting gently above a tender moment or swaying calmly with strength. Drawing from his rich creative roots, Bembry's style has grown and changed over the years while staying true to his original art. "Try To Be" is a reflection for you, a melodious suggestion that in an ever-rapid world, it's all right to pause and find yourself.
