Syleena delivers once again........2007-07-30

After two solid, if not excellent chapters, the highly underrated Syleena Johnson returns with a sexier image and a nostalgic, '70s soul-influenced sound. (I always thought her light raspy alto sounded just a little bit like Betty Wright.) Her voice is better than ever and the production here (Kanye West, Jermaine Dupri, R. Kelly, etc.) is polished and top notch. The album begins with feel-good love songs. "More" is an excellent duet with Anthony Hamilton, "Classic Love Song" is a catchy midtempo and "Bullseye (Suddenly)" is beautiful. The middle of the album is filled with more sensual tracks, but the greatest part of the album is the end, where Ms. Johnson does what she does best; she takes her painful life experiences and delivers them in song. "Another Relationship," the second single, is an emotional, scornful and dramatic testimony of a woman that is being left by her man for another woman. Ironically, just a track later, Syleena takes on the persona of "the other woman" with a guilty consience, telling the man to "Leave Her Alone." She leaves a relationship going nowhere on "Apartment for Rent." But my favorite track by far is "Only A Woman." What a way to end the album! Syleena pours her heart out on the track, sharing all the daily trials and tribulations of a woman who also has to be strong "like a man." Chapter 3 is an excellent album and I would have to agree with Ms. Johnson herself that this is her best work to date.

Syleena Johnson is back, and she ain't pulling no punches. I love a CD I can just pop in and let ride, and this is definitely on my top 5 list. Phone Sex is my favorite track, but you can sit back and let this one ride. I muat buy!

It took it's sweet time, but it grew on me..........2007-02-03

I will admit that upon my first listen I was left a little off. This is far from what I thought I was getting myself into. I had never heard anything from her before but she was recommended to me by a friend and after looking at her impressive list of guest stars (Twista, Anthony Hamilton, Common) I didn't hesitate to long to purchase her album. Her interlude immediately set me off. Its way to preachy and then her first real track `Hypnotic' kicks in and totally disproves everything she expressed in the opener. That said, after listening to this album a few times I've come to fall for her.

She has a very strong voice, unique and different and I like that. She doesn't sound like every other R&B diva out there...she's her own woman. I will say that there are a few times on the album where I feel her voice is too mature for the songs she's trying to pull off. Songs like `More' with the brilliant Anthony Hamilton really showcase this woman's talent. `Leave me Alone' is another highlight, and even `Hypnotic' is handled well, although it's not something I think she should stick to. I was troubled to find that `Phone Sex' is my least favorite track here. I LOVE Twista but this song just does nothing for me.

Oh well...to think I hated this album the first time I heard it, tucked it away and swore never to give it another try, then I did, don't know why and now I've come to appreciate it all the more...

Absolutely Wonderful.......2007-02-02

I don't write reviews. This is actually my first one. I love this album. Syleena touches on so many different subjects. I love the raspy voice. Her voice has so much texture and personality. Nobody out there sounds like her. It is really a shame that her label has not promoted her. She could rival Mary J if her label backed her.

she's got a right to do her thing the way she wants.......2006-12-22

Okay now while i dont own this album i took the courage of listening to it on limewire. Syleena has been a good singer since she started and she is an example of what R&B is supposed to sound like. Now from my experience of this album I enjoyed it thourgly and i would have bought it when it came out if I had known(My old filesharing program didnt have any good selection, and also i was broke). Now my favorite songs on here are hypnotic, slowly, speical occasion, time, leave me alone, and only a woman. also the interludes are seductive. Okay, now I'm seeing the complaint that she sold out. Okay yes she pulled the sensual thing on this album but she never stoops down to say...KHIA(my neck my back....lick my ...well you know the rest) level. Some are saying she shed her clothes. Ummmm........didnt she kina do that on "tonight im gonna let go" and in the video she's dressed in a somewhat short skirt and top shaking her a** in front of busta rhymes?? While I admit hypnotic doesnt sound like something syleena would do, she pulled it off very well. Overall this album is not full of tired beats like that otehr person said. Yes it's a different vibe than some of her stuff in the past it still sounds like it would be on a 30 and up station rather than say your local radio station(i mean how much serious R&B is on the radio today?) She only really got sexual on two songs (phone sex and slowly). the rest of the album is love songs and a couple of her songs about wrong doin men(which she is known to sing about).

OOOH how ironic is this. From the negative reviews one person said it was just tired beats while somebody else said there were NO beats at all. Oh well I guess it's just a matter of preference.
