Critic's Review
Heather Phares, All Music Guide
Gina Thompson's If You Only Knew marks her debut for Elektra Records and features more of the attitude she displayed on her first single with Missy Elliott, "The Things That You Do." Elliot reappears on If You Only Knew's "Ya Di Ya," and the album also features guest performances from Beanie Sigel and Jon B. From slinky, seductive songs like "Don't Take Your Love Away" and "Caught Up" to attitude packed tracks like "You Can't Play Me," If You Only Knew showcases Thompson's versatility as a singer, songwriter and co-producer.
