5.0 out of 5 stars Where's a real singer when ya need one???, July 7, 2004

This review is from: Special (Audio CD)

The late Phyllis Hyman. Regina Belle. Mikki Howard. Stephanie Mills. Jennifer Holiday. Lisa Fischer. Five singers that transcend others but yet are left "out in the cold" because of pop music's obsession with tinny, bland, cookie-cutter ingénues that can't sing their way out of a paper bag.

To that group of overlooked "divas," I would add Vesta; a talent with a major set of pipes but is remembered only by those of us that know talent when we hear it. The thirteen-year-old "Special" shows the singer at her most magnificent as she goes through a series of diverse songs.

The best of the slow jams are the title cut, "I Don't Wanna Cry Anymore", "Person to Person", "Where Does the Love Go?" and "I Promise Love".

On "TLC" and "Don't Trip", the singer shows that she can "get down" with the best of them. And she gets downright funky on "Do Ya", completing the trio of dance tracks.

This fan and so many others longing for a real singer to be found on the charts would welcome Vesta's return to the music spotlight.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vesta's Third CD !, September 6, 2003

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Special (Audio CD)

This album is another excellent effort that shows her continuing maturation. She gives an engaging vocal proformace throughout. It has beautiful ballads and excellent club worthy up-tempo tracks. Highlights include the ballad "Special" (the second single) and the up-tempo dance track "Do Ya" (the first single). If you don't already have this cd, buy it!

Half of the tracks are upbeat grooves and the rest are slow grooves. I saw an interview at the time this cd came out and what it meant to her. I agreed with her and even how she was able to pass on some social issues at the time that have never left us. She is coming out with an album later this month of old songs renewed. Check it out.
