Nikka Costa grabs hold of a Prince groove for “It’s Just Love”, the third single from her Dirty Disco album. Costa’s longtime love of funk is expressed in her vocal pace, rhythm guitar, and riffs that scream of the late icon’s style. The message is simple and she sums it up in a statement from a press release:
“It’s Just Love” is “a song about being able to love who you want and everyone else should just mind their own damn business. Period.”
Costa previously shared “Dirty Disco” and “Keep It High” from the album that counts Brandon Coleman and Greg Phillinganes amongst the personnel. Justin Stanley, who has worked with Prince and Beck, is the producer. Costa’s last album was Nikka & Strings, Underneath and in Between which came out in 2017. Dirty Disco will be released on June 7th.
