New Video: Chrisette Michele, ‘Love Is You’

But home girl is no one-trick pony: not only can she pick up a mic and blow, but she’s pretty sweet on the keys too. Think John Legend with a lipgloss endorsement and recent appointment with a hot-comb if you will.

In her new video, “Love Is You,” the Grammy-nominated soloist steps out of the land of background vocals and hooks-for-hire and throws out her own anthem, off her Def Jam debut, I Am. Although it’s a little on the lighter side compared to her appearances on some recent hip-hop hits, it’s a hit nonetheless. It’s that rare track you’ll recommend to your mom and use as the closer on your next make-out mix. Catch her on tour now with Solange Knowles.
