Customer Reviews

Presently Surprised!!!
I first want to applaud Ki Ki because she kept JESUS the central focus of this cd. I have been noticing a pattern of "gospel" artist leaving the message of gospel out. I was happy when I heard this cd because the latest Mary mary cd fell victim to the "barely having Jesus on cd" syndrome as well as others... I'm just glad that she showed that you can have nice beats, a youthful sound, and still include the message of Jesus.

This is Ki Ki's most Jesus centered cd she has made so far and the music is great as well : ) There are tracks with nice beats that you can dance to ( first 2 tracks right out the gate). Then it has some songs where the songs are more worship centered and the lyrics are beautiful. I already knew that Ki Ki could sing, but there is something different about this cd... her voice sounds really beautiful on some of the slower tracks but I think it is the sincerity in her voice that I really liked.

One of my favorite tracks is a song called invisible, because I think it is a message that needs to be said much more. It is not about us, but about GOD being seen and that is what the focus of that song is... The only other song that I have heard that really caputres that message is Jason Upton Dying Star (yea that was a little plug lol).

Anyway this is a good cd, with nice beats and STILL maintains a gospel message. YAY KI KI LOL

First gospel album all year that I just HAD to write a review for...
Don't get me wrong, traditional music lovers. I love traditional gospel too! But I'm one of those out-the-box gospel music lovers who believes that gospel music doesn't have to be a boring, predictable, beat-less, softie's humdrum of anti-creativity.

Which is why, while I appreciate all kinds of gospel music, I tend to enjoy the non-traditional sounds the most - the ones that don't require a trained ear in churchy music to enjoy. Again, this is not meant to incite or lambast traditionalists; you say "tomato", I say "tomatoe"; everyone's ear for music is different, and mine happens to be more new-generatiion hip-hop/R&B, if you will.

That said, I cannot believe how good Miss Kierra's CD is. (Well, I CAN believe it - we always knew she had it in her - but you know what I mean :) I mean, I could sincerely tell a non-churched friend who is into some of these R&B artists out here, look, if you like Beyonce or Jazmine or Keri, you will LOVE this CD, as a matter of fact you might even like it better!
But the powerful thing is, the message of the gospel is clear as crystal, unlike other similar contemporary gospel CDs. Kierra has managed to combined trendy tracks and hot vocals with a bold declaration about Jesus, and she also has something for everyone from die-hard contemporary R&B fans like myself to traditional gospel music fans in the vein of something her powerhouse mom would do.

Needless to say, I would highly recommend this album if it's the only contemporary gospel album you get all year. Congrats KIKI on a stunning 3rd album!

Very nice - couldve had more songs
She is never a dissappointment. I enjoyed this album. You can tell that she has matured. There are songs that may have to 'grow' on me, but all in all - very well put together. I love the last song "J-E-S-U-S" - it's so heart-felt... and i love it when artists arent afraid to call on His name again and again. The album is very well produced, and songs are well written. I would recommend this album !!!
