Summary: Impressive!!!
Comment: Wow! How has this amazing album and artist eluded the masses??? What a disservice to many music lovers who have been in the dark about this young lady and her music. She is what the music game has been missing.
Within the first few seconds of hearing the first track "Walk In My Shoes", I was hooked. I first learned of this wonderful musician when her brother (who is a talented tap dancer/instructor) played it during my students' tap dance lesson. The rhythmic flow of her songs is incredible. This album is the best collection of music that I have heard in years. "U & I", "Walk In My Shoes", "It Was You", "Hold Me", "Ride With Me", and "Colorblind" are among my favorites, although I love the entire album. It's so different from what we've been inundated with in the market... it's truly a breath of fresh air.
Ms. Emily King is the truth! She sings amazingly, she plays the guitar, and she writes with unique vision. In short, she is the bomb! "East Side Story" is a must-have for anyone who truly appreciates real soul music. From beginning to end, this album pleases; there is something for everyone. She is so eclectic in her delivery that it is hard to categorize her into a particular genre. She's R&B, she's Hip-Hop, she's Jazz, she's Neo-Soul... she does it all.
Emily is a true talent. (I hear that she rocks during her live shows; I will have the pleasure of seeing her perform live in one week).
Peace!

Comment: Emily King is a true talent. Her love for music is evident in this cd's composition and vocals. This cd should not be overlooked. East Side Story is a great mixture of soul, r&b, with a little jazz.

Summary: A Hidden Treasure
Comment: I'm certain that Emily King will hit the mainstream very soon, because talent like hers can't hide in the shadows much longer. I was very impressed by her debut album, one of the few albums I can listen to without feeling the urge to skip songs (though I'm certainly inclined to replay some!). I recently saw Emily perform at a small venue in Washington, DC, where she put on a fantastic show. And she is absolutely adorable and charming in person!
