It only has a few good songs on it. I love Keyshia Cole, but this CD is not as good as I thought it would be.
This girl can SING. I purchased this and am so glad I did. If she wants it, a huge and long future is in the wait for her. With so much music today dubbing and overdubbing the singers voice it is refreshing to hear music here with Keyshia's voice strongly in the forefront untouched, sincere and strong.For me there is not a miss on this set but there are certainly some standouts. I knew she was popular and also know that often second releases by artists are subpar. I had no idea who she was but read a review of it, listened to some sample tracks and gave it a shot. Her voice is raw, powerful and emotional with an exemplary range. Mary J sings with a rough edge to her voice while Keyshia's is just as powerful but with a gritty edge that has a more "pretty" quality.
In no way does this seem like a sophmore effort. I was introduced to Keyshia Cole thru her latest release A DIFFERENT ME. I REMEMBER is a defining moment for me with FALLIN OUT coming in a close second. LET IT GO, DIDN'T I TELL YOU, GOT TO GET MY HEART BACK and WORK IT OUT are all excellent.Bottom line, Keyshia Cole is not an overproduced product but a true artist. This comes across strongly and her music seems much older than her years.
Her voice can mezmerize with its range.It is amazing that Keyshia Cole is so young, in her 20s, but for me why her music works is because all her songs clearly come from the soul and for such a youngin she has experienced a great deal. She sings from the heart and soul and possesses amazing vocal gifts. What a huge talent.Highly recommend this cd. Her music shows her growth with her craft as well as with her own self. There is much comparison to her and Mary J. She is an amazing talent and it is reflected with each release. I loved it, so much that I looked at her other work and saw all the raves for this JUST LIKE YOU, her second release.
With the uptempo numbers as well as the slower songs and ballads a smooth r@b groove permeates throughout the whole cd with her vocals leading it all. The only similarities I see are that both are immensely talented and possess strong, emotive vocals. A DIFFERENT ME introduced me to a particular side of Keyshia and JUST LIKE YOU revealed yet another. Blige.
I can relate to so many of the songs and #7. this was the song my husband and I danced to at our wedding.Track #9. My husband and I, my kids and I, whoever is in the car, at work on the CD player. "Heaven Sent". "Gotta Get My Heart Back" is just for women who are fed up and tired of loving a dude who just doesn't love her back.All the tracks are slammin' and her new release doesn't disappoint either.Keyshia, keep it up girl. this CD gets played CONSTANTLY. I have about 4 songs downloaded as ring tones and ringback tones.
I really enkoyed it. All these song's were great.Let it go 10/10Didn't i tell you 10/10Fallin out 10/10Give me more 10/10I remember 10/10Shoulda let you go 10/10Heaven sent 10/10Got to get my heart back 10/10Was it worth it 10/10Just like you 10/10Loseing you 10/10Last night 10/10Work it out 10/10Let it go [Remix] 10/10This was a great album. This was a Beautiful album. Keyshia cole is the best R&B singer out there.
Then Let it Go hit the airwaves and I just had to check this CD out. Turns out this is a great CD to workout to. I took a risk on this CD. Believe it or not the CD has been on my table for nearly a year. I wished there were a few less ABW (Angry Black Woman)syndrome songs, but it's still a project worth checking out. The few songs from Ms. Cole's debut CD never impressed me and I didn't quite believe the hype of her being the new Mary J, especially since I don't believe we need two.
