FRANCE JOLI meets THE CROWN HEIGHTS AFFAIR on her album "Now!." That is the singer and the Production team that put this album out. I can't call this a DISCO CLASSIC, but it is close. A few strong tracks, but nothing that blows you away. GONNA GET OVER YOU was played extensively, but lacked longevity, so at best we can call it a "hidden Gem". At best, on a scale from 1-10, this album gets a 8.

Joli flirting with urban grooves and all I can say is : Bravo !
Laid back and bass-heavy , the dance tracks are miles away from the NRGetic songs off her first 2 albums.
The ballads are not to be forgotten."I'm still thinking of you" co-written by Michael Bolton and the great "Everlasting love" stand out.
"Can we fall in love again" revisits her ballad-intro style and ends up being my favorite track off the album.
