Shine
KRYSTAL MEYERS

Producer(s): Doubledutch
Writer(s): Krystal Meyers
Label: Essential/BMG

Each time pop/rock darling Krystal Meyers releases an album, her style shifts a bit. She went from the relentless, fast-paced rock of her eponymous album to the dramatic package of her sophomore effort, and now her third album Make Some Noise ushers a throwback to 80’s dance music. While she claims to have matured in the four years since her debut, her juvenile lyrics speak otherwise: “just can’t stop the light / I know nobody’s gonna get in the way of my shine.” Yet there’s no doubt that this lead single is commercial beyond anything Krystal has ever recorded, and my gut tells me that infectiousness will carry her to a new level of success that will revolutionize the sound of Christian radio.

Verdict: 3.5/5
