5.0 out of 5 stars
Best new artist since Jill Scott,
By Miss Meg (LA, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Billy Miles (Audio CD)
Billy Miles is a breath of fresh air in an othwise somewhat boring year in music. Her sound is completely her own- soothing yet complex. It is an incredibly good album especially for a debut artist. If you like Sade, Erykah Badu, Nelly Furtado or Jill Scott BUY THIS ALBUM!!!

She definitely has something to say!,
By Sister Holistic (Atlanta , GA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Billy Miles (Audio CD)
Billie Miles is a women with a different point of view to show us. Her voice is like a combination of Erykah Badu, Billie Holiday, Nelly Furtado and Estero laid down over some very smooth beats. Sister girl talks a lot of game in a voice that dares you to disagree. I first heard her on my local jazz station that plays Neo-soul,House and Rare Grooves. If this is the kind of music that you enjoy, check out Ms Miles. The first song, "Your Love Is A Lie", is the strongest track but the others are definitely on point. So get yourself a glass of merlot, sit back, and hear what she's saying.

A MODERN DAY BILLIE HOLLIDAY!!!,

This review is from: Billy Miles (Audio CD)
Billy Miles self-titled debut is a truly delightful find for me while stumbling into my local record/book store--Thank God for listening stations. Shoppers probably thought I was demented gyrating to the very sultry and sophisticated tunes of this outstanding release--"What'chall lookin' at?". I seriously digress. Not only is this sista stunningly beautiful, but she has a vocal style that can be likened to that of Eartha Kitt, Billie Holliday and others of her ilk: Lina, Roisin Murphy and "early" Erykah Badu come to mind. From beginning to end Miss Miles offers you "miles and miles" of purring, sexy, laid-back vocals (sniggle: couldn't resist that one). Not profoundly deep in her songwriting, she still makes a statement with lyrics addressing so-called friends, no good men, runaways and of course, L-O-V-E. Not only do BM's vocals sizzle, but her music as well, combining the old (blues, jazz and classical) with the new (hip/trip-hop, pop, rock) while still sounding remarkably fresh! Too early to tell how successful, or well-known Billy Miles will become, but given the atrocious state of today's R&B, she'll probably go unnoticed by the masses. A++++
