“Anissa Hargrove’s voice is rich, and soulful. I love her sassy stage presence”
“Anissa “Twinky” Hargrove was one of the original Jones Girls background singers when I decided to get back out there and keep the Jones girls legacy alive in 2008. Her voice is amazing. She shared her voice with me for over 10 years, it is smooth like silk. I can’t wait to get my copy of her new project. We must support our independent artist. She’s a hard worker and terrific singer and performer. Yes she’s ready. She Stays Ready”
“This is an awesome production! Love the vocals, musical arrangements, quality, creativity and energy. Very different and just feels great…Love it!”
“Oooh that voice! I heard you! Outstanding!”
“You sang your natural black ass off!”
