What has your soul music done for you lately? I hope it continues to enhance your drive and zest for life. Mia Miata's "Urban Arias" duly compliments the cherished intangibles of love, freedom, and expression. The album is a gem replete with expert production and deep lyrical prose. I caught Mia's vibe while cruising one day and listening to XM Satellite Radio. The track "Music Is" immediately garnered my attention and I began my quest to find out more about this talented woman. She hails from Baltimore, MD and is part of music label Tha Corporation. (Kendall Leonard is also on this label!) Mia's vocals are powerful and through her music, she presents with grace and aplomb. If your soul collection is in need of upgrading then don't sleep on Urban Arias. Sample the sound samples and take note of the reviews. The word about Mia is spreading and her vibe is a timeless treasure. Here at the DJ Consortium offices, this cd is on "heavy rotation." -One- DJ Come of Age

Mia's music exalts the hope and caring that is always present, but is very rarely depicted in American pop-culture. Musically, the tracks blend smooth jazz with spiritual traditions. Although the music builds on sounds of past artist, there is a unique freshness in the sincerity of Mia's lyrics and voice.

This is the kind of CD that will grow on you --- getting better with each spin.

You gotta get this!!!! This CD contains the elements of rich jazz, smooth like cool waters, with deep with creative metaphors. This is probably one the best independent release I ever heard.

The sound and production stands strong with any of the majors...

Mia Miata's Urban Arias creates sets new industry standards to independent releases.

Kudos to Mia Miata, Israel Johnson, and Kendall Leonard!!!

This was definately a jazzy soul cd. All of the songs has a very special meaning to them. Mia Miata has a striking voice that makes you stop and listen. You have to hear it all in order to appreciate it.

This is one of the most underrated Soul albums I have heard. Mia Miata delivers a unique vibrant sound like no other. Her projection and delivery sound far beyond the limits of a new artist as takes soul music to a new height. I love this masterpiece. Mia Miata do your thing...

I deeply appreciate this CD. She has a true unique sound that allows you to flow thru the universe with her. With all 16 tracks her beatiful voice range takes you to all limits.
I Love It!

This is one of the most incredible Independent Debut Releases I ever heard. A nice and smooth piece with incredible production, arrangement, and packaging. This is a must buy for any lovers of Norah Jones, Sade, India Arie, and many other greats. Mia Miata will be around for awhile. Expect big things for this artist. You have hear her....

This is an amazing CD. One that I will cherish in my collection forever......

I bought this CD based upon other reader's feedback. Once I listened to it, though, I gave the CD to a friend 'cause I couldn't bear to listen to it again.

Don't get me wrong: the production on this CD, lyrical content and musical arrangements, are all pretty impressive. In my opinion, though, she sings off-key for the entire album. How could the CD's producers overlook that?
