“Dance Into The Party” is stamped with Ari B’s now popular distinctive vocal style. She reminds listeners of Toni Braxton and Aaliyah, and her dancing, Janet Jackson and Paula Abdul. This blend of magic on the screen is a re-imagination of Pop, R&B and Hip Hop as the new generation likes it to be, dominant yet cool and deep, riveting ’till the end.
For Ari B, collaborating with Wayne Isham on the concept of the video, and working with such an incredible legend in the industry, was no less than amazing. “I knew after our first phone call that we were going to work great together. He is funny, he is straightforward – both great traits, especially in this creative process. In addition, I felt how passionate and invested he was in the project from day one. Either way, he is a genius. I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to work with him. On set, he was very enthusiastic and was so involved when working with everybody who was there – it sort of stuck with me that whenever he complimented me, he made sure that I took it and understood it – everything that comes out of his mouth is with purpose, and he wants to make sure his words come across, always. Such a genuine, intelligent, nice guy.”
The track is the perfect pop song with its catchy lyrics and driving beat to serve as the soundtrack for end of summer celebrations and year-round parties.
