Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - 1/4/01, p.116

Included in Rolling Stone's "Top 50 Albums of 2000".

Rolling Stone - 8/3/00, p.56

3.5 stars out of 5 - "...Jazzy, honey-dipped arrangements bypass samples in favor of strings, woodwinds, horns and drummers who swing....smells like classic soul spirit."

Entertainment Weekly - 2/16/01, p.98

"...Her honey molasses voice will coat all your senses..." - Rating: A

Q - 1/01, p.93

Included in Q's "50 Best Albums of 2000".

Q - 9/00, pp.106-8

4 stars out of 5 - "...An irresistible blend of jazzy grooves and spare instrumentation, over which Scott moves easily from spiritual matters to everyday scenes in her quest for love....essential listening."

Muzik - 10/00, p.76

5 out of 5 - "...The soul album of the year....The highlights are manifold....an album that oozes raw energy and empathy..."

The Source - 7/00, p.216

"...It's refreshing to hear R&B substance with skills....A delightfully peppered mix of spoken word, poetry and sultry vocals...providing an answer to the 27-year-old's identity search....this album definitely rides the right track."
Pitchfork (Website) - "[A] neo-soul chronicle that brought love and sex to the everywoman."
