Janice-Marie never stopped flexing her musical skills.  That said, it may have taken the singer/songwriter/musician a while to deliver her ..."Hiatus Of The Heart ", but the wait has been worth it.  This set of world-flavored R&B/pop heralds a mix of dance, midtempo tunes, and ballads that wrap themes of life and love around African and Caribbean rhythms, as well as rock, reggae, and jazz.........here's hoping listeners step beyond ...(Boogie Oogie Oogie)... and allow themselves to explore Janice-Maries Musical heart.
