Jhené Aiko has released her new EP Sail Out and she also has a new visual to accompany the release. The R&B singer put out a new video for her song “The Worst” which is quite steamy and sexy. According to vibe.com:
“Love can be a ticking time bomb and Jhené Aiko knows this all too well. In her latest visual presentation for “The Worst,” the songstress lets it all out as she struggles in her search for closure in a relationship gone bad. Every love story doesn’t have a happy ending.”
Aiko released her new record Sail Out a day earlier than planned, and the 7-track ensemble is already getting rave reviews, as Jhené is being hailed as Def Jam’s next big thing. Vibe.com also reports,
“You will get high while listening to Jhené Aiko. Forget the fact that she hit the bong for the majority of the recording process for her pristine 2011 debut mixtape sailing soul(s). On her self-made Sail Out EP, a seven-track rack of spark notes that offers both an intro and late pass to her under-the-influence influence, there are no stripper anthems or ruckus-starting bangerz for the Miley club. The only turn-up is the ascent to metaphysical (and often substance-induced) bliss.
While Rihanna has become the go-to gal for badassery and Beyoncé’s Mrs. Carter regimen has crowned her untouchable, Jhené offers an intoxicating alternative for those in need of some soul-searching. A single mother at 25 with several false starts in the industry coupled with family struggles (she lost her brother to cancer last year), Jhené doesn’t come pre-packaged as a cookie-cut starlet navigating the shallow show business. Which is why it feels more natural to compare her to one of the boys. She isn’t looking to hit Mariah falsettos or compete for arena space with the Rihs and Beys, but has instead made the struggle her signature. Sail Out reminds you it’s okay to let it burn.”
