I first saw and heard the hit single "Skin Deep" when she played it life and unplugged in tv and when she gave that interview where she explained why she now does her own thing and what she really does with her won label and production company.
She moved from Denmark to Berlin, Germany and you just hear that on that CD! The R'n'B sound on this album just reminds me of that 5 million capital. Sure I can't imagine her walking trough places like Pankow or Neukoeln on her own, but her sound still fits that multi culturel neighbourhoods. She is the answer on all this street hip hop by the male rapers and Hip Hop artits floating around in Germany.
It reminded me also of a movie I saw a few month ago called "Knallhart" witch shows the life of teenagers in Berlin.
The sound remembers me a bit of Jamelia as well, if you search for a musical reference. The sound is very clear, the background music isn't too fancy - it's simple and in the background where it belongs.
She uses her voice not as much as she could, since we know how could she could sing. The melodies are quite simple. I even would say that some songs are boring, but even there, the texts make up for a lot.
Then you only need to watch the musicvideo to her song "Skin Deep" and you know one thing: This woman is perfect! Why? She is so beautiful, intelligent and successful - what do you want more?
I admit that I actully listen to this album, simply because I her. I respect this album for what it is more, than for the music.
I also can advise you to buy it, because 16 tracks on a standard album (no special, limited or other editon!). So I like to spend my 15 euros or dollars! Not some 10 track no brain CD like most things are.
