Hearing this song, you might think to yourself, “Chaka Khan got back together with Rufus?”, “Soul Train line by myself?” and “Where’s my afro-sheen?. The melodic synths pull you into the party immediately. It is as if you grow shoulder pads and teased hair instantly! You can imagine a skating rink and holding hands with bae when Kylie Auldist sings, “Baby, baby! Give me a sign, is it love?

Kylie Auldist wrote that the album took four years in a caption on her Instagram page, as the saying goes, “Good things come to those who wait.” Stream this vibe now.
