Rock/Review Janita - Real Deal

From the outset of her career, Janita has commanded attention. As a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and songwriter, she has uniquely defied convention yet repeatedly enjoyed mainstream success.

"Real Deal," Janita's most recent song, is an intriguing precursor to her next album “Mad Equation,” which is scheduled for release in May 2025. The song, which was produced by Blake Morgan, who has collaborated with such icons as Lenny Kravitz and Lesley Gore, captures Janita's timeless artistic talent and rebellious nature.

"Real Deal" speaks to themes of self-reliance, resiliency, and the unorthodox pursuit of a creative life. It draws inspiration from the rebellious characters in “The 400 Blows” and “Butch Cassidy” and “The Sundance Kid.” Janita compares her artistic career to a symbolic firefight, a never-ending yet rewarding struggle to make her mark on the world. The song is filled with this unvarnished honesty, which gives listeners a glimpse of her unwavering commitment to her art.

"Real Deal" achieves a remarkable musical balance between self-reflection and self-determination. Janita's seductive vocals merge pop and rock elements with subtle elegance as they flow over a dynamic composition. Her voice serves as the production's focal point, enabling the audience to empathize with her introspective but audacious story.

"Real Deal," the lead song from her tenth studio album, demonstrates Janita's development while staying loyal to her creative origins. It demonstrates her ability to transform inspirations and personal experiences into an anthem that is relevant to everyone. "Real Deal" is a powerful reminder to follow your passion, even if it goes against the grain, whether you're an artist or just a person navigating the challenges of contemporary life.
