Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: LOVED IT Comment: LIKED IT SO MUCH I LISTENED TO IT FOR 3 WEEKS STRAIGHT. PROMPT SERVICE Customer Rating: Summary: Breathe Easy Comment: I can certainly say that this is a solid debut album. The Vocals on all the tracks are spectacular and the production though lagging sometimes is generally impressive. Although all the tracks are worth listening to, Work It Out and Best Of Me should be given particular attention because these track accentuate the singers diverse abilities. If you don't have this CD think again about why you are reading this preview. Customer Rating: Summary: Graet Debut Comment: Chrisette is outstanding in her debut album. Great songs as well as a great voice. If the record companies would promote their artist she would be a major star & household name for years to come. Customer Rating: Summary: Lenora's picks Comment: Chrisette is a rising star. The sweetness in her voice is endearing. I especially like the song, Good Girl. It would be a wonderful wedding song to pay tribute to the father of the bride. There were several songs that I enjoyed, "Work it Out", the "Best of Me", "I Am". Pretty much I whole CD. It was worth the money and my time. Customer Rating: Summary: Suprisingly Gifted Vocalist Comment: Hearing the lead single "If I Had My Way" over and over and over and over again, I was left thinking, ..."Not bad!!..What does the rest sound like?!" Well....after finally buying the CD, I declare that this young lady has vocal talants that have yet to be tapped! Her timing and phrasing display influences of famale R&B and jazz vocalists of today and yesterday. When you really, really listen to her sing these good songs, you can even hear some John Legend influence peppered with some Corine Bailey Rae! This is ALL GOOD!!!!! I absolutely love the cut "MR. RADIO"!! That should be her followup single (especially if she is seeking a Grammy nomination next year! The CD is outstanding. This young lady will have a bright and full professional future at the rate she is going now!! The CD is called "I AM"! ......She is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: If you didn't get to know Chrisette Michele by way of Jay-Z (she was the one singing sparkling hooks on "Lost Ones") or Nas (she channeled Billie Holiday on "Can't Forget About You"), stop wasting valuable seconds. Though the hype on this pure-voiced, raunch-resistant songstress has her resuscitating a classic jazz sound that rarely infiltrates R&B--comparisons to Lady Day, Nina Simone, and Ella Fitzgerald are mounting--she's more her generation's answer to Erykah Badu: any notes she wraps her lips around come out fresh-sounding, and she adds to the effect with a built-in elegance that's irresistible to R&B and non-R&B fans alike. Hip-hoppers get a custom dose of Michele's magic on "Be O.K.," featuring the flabbergastingly prolific yet still likable Will.i.am, jazz sentimentalists will instantly succumb to "Like a Dream," and anybody with ears on his or her head will warm to the slinky slow jam that is "If I Have My Way." Michele's is a rare talent; count on this outstanding debut propelling her to stratospheric heights. --Tammy La Gorce
