Negative Positive
Title: This LP is tight, very listenable and surprisingly mature
Review: I was really impressed by this album. I really liked the whole vibe of this album, which draws its influences from house, Sade, hip-hop and jazz. It's paced by subtle changeups in tempo ("down," "i n i") but maintains a consistent sound. Amel's voice is light and easy on the ear. What surprised me most were the maturity of the lyrics throughout. The standouts on this LP are the bouncy 1st single, "get up," "i n i," and the title track. I'm going to keep my eyes and ears on Amel. With some support, she could go a ways.
