Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Soul music is alive and well on this artist's debut album. Loaded with emotive vocal demonstrations, the set kicks off with the explosively memorable ballad "Friend of Mine." From there the album levels off into mostly satisfying tracks, including "Soul of a Woman"--a lengthy ballad interlude that's not quite a complete song but nevertheless allows the Queens, New York, artist to glow through passionate verse. A contemporary R&B artist, to be sure, Price also demonstrates her ability to flow in more traditional veins with songs like "Take Me to a Dream." But her creative skills don't stop just with her fervent ability to soar, slip, and slide through her songs. She gets extra-credit points for her talents as a songwriter and producer--once for Mary J. Blige and Mariah Carey, now for herself. --J.R. Reynolds

Entertainment Weekly
One listen to her debut makes clear that Price's poignant vocals rise above her peers'.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is Soul! .......Kelly brings it to you in Full!, November 5, 1999

By A Customer

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!

5.0 out of 5 stars Three words-"OFF THE HOOK!", January 1, 2000

By	DaVonna Harris (Des Moines, Iowa) - See all my reviews

when I purchased this album it literally changed my life. The listener is spiritually touched by this songtress. When she begins to sing you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that it's Kelly Price. I would gladly pay any amount of money to see her perform live in concert.
