ALBUM REVIEW: 10 For the People by Jamie Webster

Out on February 2nd, 10 For the People by Jamie Webster has the singer songwriter staking his claim as a hero for the people. 

10 For the People firmly proves Jamie is a voice for the working class and a champion for the underdogs. Through the eleven tracks, Jamie provides anthems and beautifully crafted stories that reflect not only the world around us but Jamie’s growth since his 2020 debut album We Get By.

Jamie’s ability to capture the heart of every day ups and downs and be a platform for those unheard can be heard is tracks like “Voice of the Voiceless”, “How Do You Sleep”, and “Sing Your Tears”. Respectively, the songs are about uniting for a positive change, the hand that government has in war and refugees, and mental health.

While Jamie does bring attention to social injustices and seeks to unify through the power of positivity, his storytelling in songs like “Lovers in the Supermarket”, “Fickle Fran” featuring Billy Brag, and “Looking Good” showcase his connection to the human experience.

It’s this depth and authenticity that is at the heart of Jamie’s music. He’s not singing or writing about things because they are trendy, but because they are near and dear to him. His commitment to his roots and the community is evident, not just in his music but also in his actions. Whether he is encouraging openness about mental health or raising money for charities, like donating earnings from “How Do You Sleep At Night?” to the British Red Cross, his dedication to making a positive impact is front and centre.

As Jamie continues to ascend in the music scene, his authenticity remains intact. The album reflects his bold musical progression, incorporating diverse influences and tackling significant societal issues. 10 For the People is proof of Jamie Webster‘s ability to craft powerful narratives, connect with his audience, and use his platform for meaningful conversations. It’s a musical journey that not only entertains but also invites listeners to reflect on their own lives and the world around them.
