I love Ashantis album. The young star has come out with some of the most original, different R'n'b music I've seen in quite a while. Her music is soft and romantic with a fun edge to it. The Murder Inc crew have effortlessly produced tune after tune with excellent smoothness and great beats every time. Each song has its own mood, and evoke emotions with Ashantis beautiful voice soaring in places then softening in others, with methodic precision. The lyrics are inspiring and touch a place in your heart as you enjoy the instrumental genius of this album. Ashanti takes the listener on a journey of love, with sensual singing, rhythmic beats and ingenius timing. However, there are several extremely annoying interludes on the CD which kind of spoil the smoothness of it all. One especially is an argument which includes swearing-completely unnecessary. At one point in one of her songs also, there is rude referral to sex which I felt did not need to be so explicit.
