For Every Heart is the debut studio album by Ukrainian recording artist Jamala.

Background

When jazz musicians switch to pop music, it causes an ambiguous feeling. On the one hand – it's a pity. On the other – for the national variety art it is still a chance. In the case of Jamala – that is some third option. When she withdrew from the "Beauty Band" and got engaged in her solo career – this did not become a step back from complex music in favor of simple one. It was not a step back at all. Jamala – and the debut album illustrates this very nicely – creates light music in the best Western tradition. And not just coolly – at a high quality level. Her love for soul, funk, jazz, burlesque and even classical music – it's all here, in this music so many things are mixed that you cannot guess everything at once. Instead, we can say that "For Every Heart" is a painting drawn in very wide and free strokes. Not to the least extent – due to arrangements by Yevgen Filatov aka The Maneken. This is a powerful combination of vintage accessories with modern rhythms and "soundies", improvisations, delves in some very unexpected styles... thus – a poignant, fresh, bright work, pop music in its best sense. Not every day do world-class pop albums appear in Ukraine, but "For Every Heart" seems to be – one of them.[1]
