wow! this tape really shocked me. i didn't buy it when it first came out, because i thought it was going to be a typical tired r&b tape. but i listened to it at a friend's house, then i went right out & bought it. kelly should be crowned the next queen of r&b. she has one of the most beautiful voices ever. there isn't a dissapointing song on the whole album. the song that really takes this album to the next level is "take me to a dream", which is one of the best love songs i ever heard. the other songs that caught my attention are "friend of mine", "don't say goodbye", "you complete me", & "soul of a woman". if you like mariah, faith, or whitney, you'll definately like kelly. keep doin what your doin kelly.

while record labels have made much of kelly price's vuluptuous figure, they'd do better to shut their eyes (and their mouths) and just listen. it seems that, lately, every female that releases an album is touted as the next great diva, but few of them have the lungs to back up the advance praise. furthermore, while price's album boasts its fair share of torch songs, she doesn't come off the least bit victimized; rather, she exudes an elegance that is far too often missing from today's artists. not only is price's album an exposé on the soul of a woman, but it also loosely follows a romantic narrative. from the betrayal of "friend of mine" to the attempted reconciliation of "soul of a woman" to the confrontation of "friend of mine (remix)", price tells a story with which listeners are sure to identify. also a talented songwriter and producer, price can count among her competition everybody from former employer mariah carey to andrea martin, knowing that she's got what it takes to hold her own.

This cd from Kelly price is tight. The tight harmonies, beats and soulful singing will kepp u humming and pressing rewind all day. A lot of singers are starting to come out from the background who were either doing back up or producing like....(Deborah Cox-(Celine Dion)),(Kelly P-(Mariah)), etc.. To me her best cut I ever heard her sing besides "friend of mine"...(and her most soulful) is the song she did on the "life" soundtrack. If you haven't heard it...it's worth getting just for that song.

I heard she should be coming out with another one soon...If so ......I'll be the first to get it.

Don't hesitate on getting this...If you want a true sample of 90's soul...Check out Kelly Price!

When Friend of Mine came on the airwaves on the radio in 1998, I went, Lord this girl can SAAAANG! It's going straight to Number One! And it sure did! It set the tone for Kelly Price's first album! All throughout, this is wonderful first album she made. Songs like Her, You Complete Me, Lord Of All, and the Friend of Mine remix with Ronald Isley were all superb. Her next two albums are also superb and I still love them too! She's a superb songwriter too and I still love the songs she has contributed or sang on other artists' songs like P Diddy and Mase. She was brillant as a background singer in Mariah Carey's touring band. This is a superb debut in its own right, soulful for a late '90s album in an era of technology and slickly-produced, sample-heavy, hip-hop beats-heavy albums. She recalls a more classic era too.

This is pure soul at it's finest!! Kelly Price may be one of the best singers ever. Her voice is so complete that it's almost scary. You can feel the emotion in every note she breathes. My favorite song by far is You Complete Me. The rest of the CD is great, but that track outshined the others in my opinion. Both versions of Friend of Mine are spectacular!! Who better to have on the remix than R. Kelly himself?? This album is definitely worth buying.

i was definetly not suprised, by the content on the album entitled Soul of A Woman by Kelly Price, because i knew that kelly was an excellent singer. i love this album so much, kelly is a beautiful & talented young lady and the album shows it. i love every song, and every second of the album. my favorite song is "take me to a dream", but i also really like "kiss test", "you compelet me" (featuring 112's Daron Jones), "soul of a woman", "your love" (featuring Lil' Cease), "lord of all", and "friend of mine" [remix] (featuring Mr. Biggs & R. Kelly). i can't wait for kelly price's second album to come out, if she decides to make one. i never heard an album this good, except for my favorite album of all time Keep the Faith by Faith Evans, & Unleash the Dragon by Sisqo. good luck in the future kelly, we are all ruting you on.

OH MY GOODNESS!!!! This album is unlike anthing I have ever heard. Kelly managed to put her SOUL in CD form. Many other artists have tried, yet I dont think did it like Kelly did. I just recently bought the CD and I found myself wondering why I had not done it sooner.My favorite song is "You Complete Me" and because of Kelly's great talent, I now feel complete. You are the GREATEST!!!!!

I truely enjoyed listening to this CD. The lyrics and music are great.To the ladies out there, this CD is a must have for your collection. SOUL OF A WOMAN is the BOMB!

I remember this album when I was in the 6th grade. This woman can really sing. This is an extraordinary, primarily self-composed album. This album delves deep into the collective heart, soul and mindset of the female gender, while leaving much of the feminine mystique intact. Her pure soul voice is an emotional cauldron, boiling over with innovative power and primal passion. Every word, note and nuance of this album are delivered with attention to quality and detail as well as to entertainment aesthetics. A serious listen leaves no doubt that she is a brilliant singer and songwriter, whose inspired images and full tilt performances paint poignant portraits of love's many sides. This album has been certified Platinum. Remember, this was 1998-1999.
