Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Blend the old-school R&B sound with a quirky hybrid of hip-hop and pop and you get Little Jackie, the creation of genre-defying singer-songwriter Imani Coppola and multi-instrumentalist Adam Pallin. With a nod to the soulful Motown rhythms of the past and a sneer to many of the social and cultural issues that consume the public today, Coppola has crafted an album of musical sugar and spice, filled with sweet, saccharine-tinged melodies and spicy, bold commentaries.

5.0 out of 5 stars A bit of confusion..., July 21, 2008

By	DD Winters - See all my reviews

There is no denying that this album is absolutely fantastic, but the previous reviews are a bit misleading. Little Jackie IS Imani Coppola. It's the group name of her and partner Adam Pallin. The group name is taken from the Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam song "Little Jackie Wants To Be A Star". I know that the vocals are credited to "Little Jackie" in the CD notes , but make no mistake, the vocalist and talent behind this is none other than Imani. It's a great extension of her solo work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heart, mind, and..., August 21, 2008

By	James C. McOmber "Ukulele Ike" (Palo Alto) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It's pretty trite to go on and on about how an R&B singer has "sass" or "attitude". I don't need to tell you that Imani has an attitude that'd make you think thrice before crossing her. In contrast to that, though, judging by the feel-good vibe that emanates from most of her music -- nevermind how caustic the lyrics -- you can tell her main thing is having a good time and tossing aside useless inhibitions with a hearty "Screw it!"

It's not often that I give a largely electronic album this high of praise, but it's certainly deserving of it. I enjoy having these tunes play on repeat in my head -- and Imani's words and delivery make me actually think. The heart, mind, and BOOTY are all appealed to here. That's right. I just said booty.

One question, though -- why is there a huge parental advisory sticker when all the songs are very much edited?

5.0 out of 5 stars Every song on this album is a 10/10, July 26, 2008

By	Kat "Lady Panther" (Miami FL.) - See all my reviews

I had never heard of this artist before but I am glad that I surfed the web to the right place. This is a great album. Honestly one of the best in 2008 and good music like this does not come around often. Every song on this album is a 10/10
