The entertainment entrepreneur recorded the album at the Argyros Performing Arts Center in Ketchum, Idaho. In her introduction track, Alyssa teased that throughout the record, she would be genre-hopping. Throughout Alyssa Jacey Live, Alyssa delivered an impressive combination of original tunes and cover songs. Also, Alyssa weaves through her life story in between tracks with insightful monologues.

“It’s My Birthday” by Benn Good
Benn Good is a rising star in the music industry. Kanye West signed him to his Very GOOD Beats label, and Benn already collaborated with Ciara, John Legend, SZA, and the “Love Lockdown” rapper himself. “It’s My Birthday” is a superbly produced and written track that showcases Benn Good’s thoughts on his birthday. Little did he know that the COVID-19 pandemic would rock his world. I am looking forward to seeing what he does next! B+
