As the much-anticipated solo debut from the soft spoken eldest sister of the Clark dynasty, the aptly titled Expectancy released on Detroit-based Entheos Records causes Jacky Clark-Chisholm to shine on a powerful package of worship oriented tracks that match her melodious style and pure vocal sincerity. The album features a rare and now classic duet with Ronald Winans on "I Have Decided" and the Caribbean-themed "We Are Overcomers." Here Jacky is assisted by her sister Twinkie Clark and accompanied by dense choral harmonies, Trinidadian steel pans and Jamaican syncopations within the song's confident lyrics. Jacky's textured alto has a fresh and airy quality soaring through the opening cut "Oil of God" setting the atmosphere for worship on the rest of the album. Her sisters join her by bringing in elements of soul, blues and jazz to testify in true Clark style that the Lord is still "Blessing Me." Jacky's sweet mellow sound appears in a union of gospel and R&B on "My Soul Says Yes" before she concludes the project with "Bye Bye," a loving tribute to the incomparable Dr. Mattie Moss Clark showcasing two of Jacky's children, Aaron and Angel Chisholm, as they give listeners a glimpse into the bright future of the Clark dynasty.
