James Deacon - Not Givin' Up [Review] April 05, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Neo-Soul Rating: 4.0 out of 5 “‘Not Given Up’ rolls out to your ears feeling like three songs in one, and the entire trio is engaging and entertaining. The vocals pulled me in and held me tight through all three delivery styles and musically this track gets out of the way so that the emotions and lyrics carry the way.” — Travis Erwin (LA On Lock Blogger)
