5.0 out of 5 stars "Speechless": Kelly Price's Triumphant Return May 5, 2011
Format:Audio CD
Monday, May 2, 2011, was designated as my "get prepped for Kelly Price's `Kelly' album release day." To get prepared, I listened to some of her classics like "It's Gonna Rain," "Again," "At Least (The Little Things)," and "Friend of Mine." I even listened to the song she recorded with P. Diddy "No Way Out." She steals the show on this track and she only does the hook. While listening to these songs, I realized how much I've missed this incomparable voice--a true instrument.

Tuesday, May 3, 2011, album in hand...

I must begin with the song that I keep going back to: "Speechless." Wow--what a song! In a lot of ways it's a really simple song but that Prince, Minneapolis sound absolutely kills me. The lyrics are wonderfully descriptive in terms of the subject matter of the song. Great writing. In the second verse, listen carefully to the run that she does at 1:35. This is when I knew that Kelly was in top form.

Of course I knew this from the opening track "Tired." Very gospel. Very reflective. Very endearing. It's one of those universal tracks that attempts to bring everyone into Kelly's world. I love the way this track builds. Great instrumentation.

"And You Don't Stop"-The strings on this song are amazing. Great track. Did I already mention the strings? Great sample of War's "Galaxy."

Kelly and Stokley of Mint Condition fame do a fantastic duet with "Not My Daddy." This was a great single choice to create interest in both Kelly's and Mint Condition's great album "7." Very enjoyable track that continues to receive play on good radio stations.

"Himaholic" is Kelly's sensual track on the album. The operative word being "sensual" here. Done the right way. The theme reminds me of Rahsaan Patterson's "Loving You" from "After Hours."

"I'm Sorry" and "The Rain" finds Kelly very comfortable in her element. Forgiveness and rebirth are the themes of both tracks respectively. She sounds amazing on both tracks but neither move me in the way the previous tracks do. However, the beauty of good music is that we can go to it when we need it. With that said, during the coda of "The Rain" she is singing her heart out. Beautiful.

Things heat back up for me again with "Vexed." Funky. Soulful. Drums. Great.

"Feels So Good" is simply dope. This is the riding song of the album. Let your windows down and enjoy.

"You Don't Have To Worry" is classic Kelly! The flow of the song is very reminiscent of her earlier work. It's a nice reminder though.

"Lil Sumn-Sumn" is Motown/Tambourine Shaking/Beautiful guitar greatness. Love it.

The album ends with "Get Right Or Get Left," a Gladys Knightesque track with Beyoncé reference points that Kelly beautifully brings together to make it distinctly her own. Great song.

Her writing is good. Her voice is impeccable. The instrumentation is fantastic. This is, by far, Kelly's best album--no question. I love the fact that we get an artist's best work this late in their career. This is a testament to the love of the art more than anything else. I wholeheartedly recommend this album to anyone who truly loves good music.

Welcome back Kelly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kelly Price returns to form on "Kelly" May 5, 2011
Format:Audio CD
By the time Kelly Price debuted in 1998, she was already a seasoned veteran. She paid her dues behind the scenes as a background singer for Mariah Carey and being a session singer on some very known songs, such as Mase's "Feel So Good" as well as The Notorious B.I.G.'s "Mo Money Mo Problems". A lot of people wanted to see the face behind the voice, so Kelly delivered her debut album "Soul Of A Woman" that featured her big hit "Friend Of Mine". Things got off to a good start for her until 1999, when a corporate merger resulted in a label shake up where the former Island Records recording artist was moved to Def Jam Recordings. In 2000, she released her sophomore album, the long winded "Mirror Mirror"- accompanied by a newly svelte image from the fomerly full-figured Price. A few years later, she released her third album, the critically acclaimed but commercially underperforming "Priceless". She laid low for a few more years and issued her long talked about gospel album "This Is Who I Am" in 2006, and disappeared into relative obscurity shortly thereafter. Her hiatus ended in summer 2010 when she emerged with the song "Tired" followed by the internet leak of her Mint Condition duet "Not My Daddy" several months later. Both songs elicited a generally positive response from fans about her new material, so she released her first secular album in eight years- the aptly-titled "Kelly" on southern soul label Malaco Records.

On this new album, she is reunited with her previous producers- Warryn Campbell and Shep Crawford- both of whom worked with her on her albums "Mirror Mirror" and "Priceless". On this new effort, Kelly does something that she has never done before- a record that is mostly live instrumentation. She makes a blatant retro dance track with "And You Don't Stop", while being addicted to a man on "Himaholic". On "I'm Sorry", she apologizes to herself for making bad choices in past relationships. She channels the sound of New Orleans band The Meters on "Vexed" and pays tribute to Prince and the Minneapolis Sound on "Speechless". She extols the virtues of being happy in a relationship on "Feels So Good", which should not be confused with the song of the same name by Mase that she sang on almost fifteen years earlier. The closing track on the album "Get Right Or Get Left" sounds like the best song that Aretha Franklin never recorded, and is Kelly's shining moment for her vocals. Overall, Kelly Price's "Kelly" could be viewed as her best produced album- and possibly her best studio album- as it has the material that complements her voice. She sounds as if she's really proud of this album- as she should be. The only real problem with this record is the fact that she didn't release it sooner.

I love Kelly Price mostly because she belts her music out, writes most of her own tunes alone or with other writers and because her music is generally rooted in R&B. Read more
