"Honestly, "Call My Name" is inspired by those special people in your life that send those good chills down your spine the moment they speak your name. The ones who love you through it all—who are always there. For me, it’s my husband, Dana. The incredible producer and other writer, Dem Jointz, told me that he, “was inspired by life and how our lives are so in need of “uplift and feel goodness!!” Those are the best ingredients to add when being vulnerable and creative.” And I agree! It takes you on a journey and at the end you're left feeling elevated and wondering how you ever went without hearing it."- Jordin Sparks
