 Is this gospel? January 9, 2009
Alexis M. Pleasant (Los Angeles, CA)
Wow is this gospel? And, indeed it is. This is a great album infused with today's hip-hop and R&B flavor, but yet composed with elements of today's more traditional gospel music sound. Keep up the work Kiki. The musical vibes will hook them in; the message will keep people from sinking in sin.

No one who knows me even fleetingly would mistake me for a practicing Christian, so as someone who is very into music (composes/DJs) but picks up almost no gospel on average, saying that I found this CD not only worth buying but recommending to general audiences is a big deal.
This CD is well-produced, the songs are very strong and Sheard can sing rings around a LOT of people. The thing that compelled me to pick it up was how contemporary and fresh it sounded. She could have a number of these songs on mainstream radio, and she does so without losing her purpose and going off mission to sell it without the God garnish. The music is Grammy-ready, and could have easily been about the same junk that's all over the radio now. Sheard gives us an album that confronts what not only do-gooders are sick of, but people who listen to the radio are sick of too: bad music. If Beyonce made a gospel record, it'd come close to this (though Sheard would likely come out on top because, you know, gospel isn't just a flavor for her).
If you only buy one gospel record this year - or in recent memory - get this one. She'll have you bumping the car at max and smiling about it.
Do you really think KiKi could be more saved? December 26, 2008

This young woman knows what her fans like, knows what her Aunt Twinkie expects and KNOWS the Lord. All tracks are a wonder and guess what, if More black siblings placed this much emphasis on Christ and pleasing Him through Music, 95% of Black youth would all be driven to confess Christ as their Savior. I know the Japanese bros. and sis. ate this up!
 A voice of her own December 16, 2008

She follows a wonderful legacy of women in the gospel music arena and now she has a voice of her own. You can hear her creativity and youthfulness in the songs but you still have that Clark family impact in her delivery of the songs. Very much a youth centered album as far as the beats go makes you wana dance
Wow! December 1, 2008

I too share the same sentiments as most of you do about KiKi's new CD. I was kinda surprised to see the first review, because she/he stole my exact words that I expressed to someone else. I was very much pleased and shocked that KiKi didn't go the insinuation route of barely mentioning Jesus as do most contemporary Christian artists these days (Mary Mary & Deitrick Haddon were my two utter disappointments for the year).
Kiki's lyrical maturity and spiritual growth are evident on this album (with the exception of the 'boyfriend' one...that's still a little on the pop tart side :O) and I for one am very proud of her (as if I know her personally or something. haha)
