Two years from the two-triple-zero and there's still a huge gap between the musical tastes of black folk and white folk. Case in point: Xscape. Despite having gone platinum and being two CDs deep (Traces of My Lipstick is their third), chances are that their music and names would register a big head scratch in most melanin-challenged homes. Part of that may be image--these ladies have been known to look a tad, uh, rough--or that the Atlanta-based group has been handed songs (usually by the unctuous Jermaine Dupri) that aren't as slick or pop-friendly as some of those other gals' hits. Not so on this CD, which finds the women mainly concentrating on sexy ballads, most of which have to do with playing around or being played on, and decidedly mainstream material like "The Arms of the One Who Loves You." Written and produced by Diane "That's a Hit!" Warren, the track is all blown-up passion and ersatz soul: all the better for breaking Xscape's strong and sultry harmonies out of the confines of black radio. --Amy Linden

GREAT CD.......2006-07-10

Xscape is definitely a group of talent females, their voices are so smooth & strong. When I listen to "Traces of My Lipstick" the lyrics often make me reflect about memories in my life, the ballads are so so true. I wish Xscape had a DVD with their performances.

Ok...It's Ok.......2006-07-02

I really love some tracks in it,No.2.3.5...But the others didn't do anything to me...so,it's ok

Amazing Ballads Make The CD Work.......2005-11-29

Xscape really matured with this album by showing their range and vocal ability. The song that really caught my attention was My Little Secret and the lead singles Am I Dreaming, The Arms Of The One Who Loves You but my favorite slow jam off is Sofest Place On Earth. This album finds Jermaine "JD" Dupri behind the boards for four tracks, including "All About Me" and "My Little Secret." Other producer/writers on the project include Diane Warren ("The Arms of the One Who Loves You"), Daryl Simmons ("The Runaround") and Babyface ("Your Eyes"). The vocals of Kandi Burruss, Tamika and LaTocha Scott and Tameka "Tiny" Cottle are mature, reaching far beyond the massive teen appeal that surrounds them. TRACES OF MY LIPSTICK finds the girls soft and sultry at times ("Softest Place on Earth"), while the Jeep-beat stomp of "Do You Know" shows their vocal diversity. With this brilliant recording, Xscape avoids the pitfall of urban music's "here-today-gone-tomorrow" syndrome by providing solid vocal performances of groove-steady compositions.
