For those of us who miss the funk that was once produced by Prince back in the day Kevin Michael fills in the void. Though the first two tracks did not do much for me, if you enjoy them then hold on for a wild ride. From song #3 on the funk is unleashed. If you like creative R&B with a little funk thrown in from time to time you will love this album. If Prince could go back to this type of recording there would be many many fans delighted beyond belief. If you thought Van Hunt was taking the mantle Kevin Michael is grabbing hold and not letting go.

OKAY I SAW THIS GUY PERFORM ON THE TV SERIES "LINCOLN HEIGHTS" ON ABC FAMILY... AND HE BLEW ME AWAY! I SAID LET ME CHECK THIS CD OUT AND BOY WAS I WAS IMPRESSED! THIS MAN IS REFRESHING AND I'M SURPRISED THE RADIO DOESN'T PLAY HIS MUSIC. SHAME ON THEM! HE IS A CROSS BETWEEN FUNK,SOUL, R&B, NEO-SOUL ALL IN ONE. LOVE HIS STYLE, HIS MUSIC AND HIS VOICE. VERY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT'S ALREADY OUT THERE. BUY THIS CD AND YOU WON'T REGRET IT. ALSO IF YOU WANT TO CATCH DIFFERENT ACTS THAT ARE OUT THERE, CHECK OUT THE TV SHOW "LINCOLN HEIGHTS", THEY SHOWCASE NEW ARTIST BREAKIN OUT EVERY WEEK!

Hi, I bought this based on a newspaper review. I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was as good as they claimed.- hasn't left my car CD player all week. Up there with Amy Whinehouse and Outkast.

This project is quite impressive I must say. He is a part of the new breed and hopefully the direction music for teen and young adults are taking. A nice mix of hip-hop, R&B, reggae flavor with futuristic sounds and lyrical perspective. He definately has something to say along with the catchy hooks, flow and unique vocal quality and sound that is reflective of ole school but at the same time different enough to be distinguishable from past artist. Hopefully, he will get the exposure he deserves. Through mediums like amazon, some that may not have known about him are having that opportunity, like myself.
And I got to mention the fact that Q-Tip, makes a guest appearance on a funky track that just puts the icing on the cake for me. Those of you who are supporters of Q-Tip from Tribe, as well as his, solo work understand that this kind of endorsement carries alot of weight for those who can appreciate hip-hop on a whole nuther level. This project definately lives up to that standard. Oh, and look out for his movie day bue on January 25, 2008.

People are sleepin on this dude right here. There's alot of comparisons to be made between Kevin Michael and the Purple One. Wyclef on the album is boo boo but Q-tip saves it.

Found Kevin Michael after following up on the very talented Akil Dasan from the Missy Elliot "Road to Stardom" show. Akil features his beatbox & guitar skills on two of Kevin's tracks (when's the album out Akil?). As for the CD, I am feelin' every song, my favourites being Love Letter and Vicki Secrets - the album hasn't left my player for the past fortnight! His vocals are astonishing, clearly reflected in the heavy hitters joining him on some of the tracks - Wyclef J, Q-Tip and Lupe Fiasco to name a few! He is surely going to blow up HUGE and deservedly so. By the way Kevin, hurry up and come back to the UK!!!

I really enjoy listening to the Kevin Michael cd...his voice is sexy and refreshing...Track #5-Vicki Secrets is my favorite, Kevin's voice is awesome on this track with the falsetto....he has Lupe Fiasco, Wyclef Jean and Q-Tip featured on tracks! I'm totally impressed! I made a really good choice purchasing this cd.
