Fantasia Barrino’s “Back To Me” album is the most consistent album released this year. The album is flawless! I didn’t say its perfect but rather flawless because it delivers everything one expects from a soulful singer like Fantasia and more.
From track 1 to 12 Fantasia takes you on a journey of bittersweet love with gospel undertones. She effortlessly move from one ballad to another emotionally. Now what more would you want from a soul singer?
Vocally Fantasia is on point and her vocal abilities is at its peak in the track “The Thrill is Gone” which also features Ce-Lo Green. She starts you on this journey with “I’m Doin’ Me”and leaves you panting with emotion with “I’m Here”.
Fantasia comes off as a reborn and matured artiste in this record. She outperforms herself in her previous albums. And a very good comeback this album is. I mean if you are an artiste and you don’t improve then you should be dumped in a trash can.
If am forced to choose a favorite track inthis album, I would go for “Collard Greens and Cornbread”, “Man of the House”, “Falling In Love Tonight” and “Even Angels”.
Truly Fantasia is a vocal beast! Her rough-hewn vocals drags at your heart begs you to fall in love with her and surely i tell you, you can’t resist. If you dont go cop a copy of this album then it simply means that you dont know good music.
Oh and Dear Fantasia please in this wilderness called Hollywood, you have to be vicious, learn how to spin bad publicity to boost your image. You need to develop a tough skin and dont be going ahead attempting suicide cos u are having an affair with a married man and cos of a sextape scandal. Go ask Miss America 1998 and Kim Kardashian for tips.
Oh well how i wish you would read this. SMH!
