4.0 out of 5 stars This Wonderful Album Should Be IN YOUR HANDS!, September 8, 2006

Keisha White is the real deal Holyfield. Representing North London, the young soul siren embodies that 'it' factor that every artist wishes they possessed. She's got the chops, she's got the looks, and she's got the versatility. But being a world away will limit her exposure to the listening audience in the United States. Nevertheless, Keisha White has the sophistication for the older crowd along with the power ballads that the 'American Idol' audience seems to enjoy hearing week in and week out on the show. And her debut album Out of My Hands is certainly one of those albums that the critics will love and embrace after one listen.

"The Weakness In Me" is a superb illustration of the vocal gift that Keisha personifies in every note she exclaims in her songs (see link to the video below). Other compelling melodies include "I Choose Life" and "It Takes A Stronger Man." But Keisha White also explores the delicate and smooth side of R&B with songs like "One Step At A Time," "Love Is The Deepest Hurt," and "Why." She even does a few mid-tempo tracks like the funky "Brother," the title track "Out Of My Hands," the unrelenting "What's On Your Mind" and the cover of the Patti Austin/James Ingram classic "Baby Come To Me." Even the upbeat riff of "Complicated Emotions" doesn't sound out of place despite it being the only cut on the album that comes close to a dance track.

A lot of people will try to draw comparisons to people like Toni Braxton, Joss Stone, or Heather Headley. But Keisha White is truly a starlet in her own right. Her gracefulness alone sets her far apart from the pack. And even though Out of My Hands is an import disc, the few extra bucks to get your hands on it will be worth every penny once you play it for the first time in your stereo.

4.0 out of 5 stars Simply breathtaking!, June 28, 2007

This is an awsome CD. Look out for the first 4 tracks and 'Baby come to me' and 'It takes a stronger man'. 'The weakness in me' was originally done by Joan Armatrading and it has always been a masterpiece. I never thought anyone could ever do it any justice until now. 'Baby come to me' was also done by Regina Belle and also by Patti Austin. Keisha White added a nice flavour to it really sounds great. This is definitely a must have CD in your collection. Your decision is now "Out of my hands"

Don't know why Keisha White's music isn't all over the US airwaves, because she's a hit in the UK. Her tunes are fresh and soulful and her voice is even better. This is the most played album on my iPod. Check her out. You won't be disappointed.
