Making that move onto a new chart benchmark, Jody Watley has her first chart entry on the Billboard Smooth Jazz Network Chart with her reimagined interpretation of the Bob Marley classic “Waiting In Vain” produced by Watley and longtime co-producer Rodney Lee.
The first entry as a solo artist was 1987 with her Grammy Winning Debut’s “Looking for A New Love.” In a career spanning decades Watley’s music has continued to cross genres with notable chart entries in Pop, R&B, Hip Hop/Rap, Dance, and Electronica.
Going back further to Watley’s teen years as an original member of the Disco / R&B trio Shalamar “Take That To The Bank” in 1978 you can also add the Disco Chart.
“No one ever asks a painter why don’t they paint scene or picture over and over.. so why should a music artist? That’s how I feel about my music..I’m a painter – of music be it original composition or reinterpretation.” – Jody Watley
In a genre dominated primarily by instrumentals, it’s very nice to see this “Waiting In Vain” continue to make it’s mark 6 weeks in. Make sure to call in, hit up these stations and their social media!!
