"Soul War"
Gerren Lavey
Independent (release date: July 25, 2025)
By Robert M. Marovich
Formerly known as J the Producer, Christian artist Gerren Lavey sings about the struggle of his life on "Soul War," but with such a satisfying R&B smoothness that you know the good guys win in the end.
Besides Lavey's compelling tenor, the song's retro feel is what stands out musically, in particular the steady pattern of triplets that drive the beat and the melody. The single is radio size at 3:20, but it could continue for longer.
