“Optimistic” was the debut single of inspirational choir Sounds Of Blackness and the first release from Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis' Perspective label imprint through A&M Records.
The uptempo song features lead vocals traded-off between five members of the choir, most notably Ann Nesby who would take the lead on most of the groups singles for the next 5 years before leaving to embark on a solo career.
“Optimistic” reached #3 on the R&B charts in 1991 and has kept a quiet and infrequent relevance since. In early 2017, favorite son Chance the Rapper brought the song back to the forefront with his social media-driven #OptimisticChallenge in the wake of widely-felt post-election blues. Chance spurred people to encourage themselves by doing choreographed dances to this 25+ year old Sounds of Blackness hit.
