4.0 out of 5 stars Kandi does well after her Xscape from the group, October 16, 2000

I was hesitant to buy this CD at first, although I like the work that Kandi and her partner in music, Kevin "She'kspere" Briggs have put in with TLC, Destiny's Child, Faith Evans, Joe, etc. When I saw reviews from "Tony" and "I.B." I decided that I should take a chance. "Hey Kandi" is an impressive debut CD from Kandi, formerly of the group Xscape. The music is on point at all times and Kandi has a good presentation going on with all of her songs. The problem? Is the subject matter. With all the success that they have had with their past songs, you think Kandi and "She'kspere" would want to try a different subject matter. "What I'm Gon' Do To You", "Don't Think I'm Not", "Pants On Fire", "Can't Come Back", "Cheatin' On Me", after a few songs you get the point. Don't get me wrong, this is a tight CD. My personal favorite song is "Just So You Know", where Kandi reminds us of Xscape's slow jams of the past like "Understanding" and "Do You Want To". Other gems are "Hey Kandi", "Easier" w/Faith Evans, the 1st single "Don't Think I'm Not", and "Cheatin' On Me". If you like Kandi's days with Xscape then you will enjoy this CD. She just needs to change up the topics a little more the next time around.

when i first heard DON'T THINK I'M NOT i fell in love with kandi instantly. So as soon as i heard the album was released i rushed out to but it and I gotta admitt i never expected it to be this good. With blazing lyrics and solid beats this debut is HOT! If BRANDY, MONICA, MYA or AALIYAH is your thang then buy this CD! It truly is worth the money!

5.0 out of 5 stars AT LEAST SOME FRESH & NEW R&B, September 19, 2000

By 

ZAKHOR (BORDEAUX, France) - See all my reviews

No fake interludes on each songs, no diane warren ballads, no guests by DMX or Ja-Rule, no Rodney Jerkins Track, no samples, and no fake lyrix. With kandi, it's just some funky music by She'kspere & his crew that changes from the usual r&b trax and the lyrix are original too. Let's face it we don't have 12 "No Scrubs" on the album and that's the great surprise from party trax to ballads all the beats are hot to death. And with some executive production by Track Masters Tone & Poke the project can't be wrong. Maybe the best R&B album of the year, at least original, fresh. A Must have. Kandi Go On!
