[Lady Love Review] Today is the day! “Lady Love” is finally available!!!

by on Aug.25, 2009, under LETOYANEWS FEATURES, NEWS, REVIEWS

While on the debut album LeToya let us know she was that “H-town chick” by using H-town Rappers and H-town production to convey that southern confidence (swagger if you will), on “Lady Love” she does no such thing. Instead, she opts to convey that swagger solely through her lyrics and vocal execution. “Lady Love” finds LeToya as “swagger” made flesh; confidence epitomized.

From the opening song all the way to the last, we are taken on a journey through all the ups & downs, and ins & outs of Love. I am actually surprised at some of the various perspectives LeToya takes with this album. Lady Love is a true R&B album with just a sprinkling of pop added for good measure. Lyrically the album is brutally honest and well constructed; vocally LeToya sounds better than she ever has, the growth is astounding; conceptually she thoroughly explores all the different tenets of Love.

[Review] “Don’t Need U”, “She Ain’t Got” & “Swagger”

by on Aug.24, 2009, under LETOYANEWS FEATURES, REVIEWS

“Don’t Need U”

This song is very catchy,and also very poppy.  On this record LeToya details the last stages of getting over a failed relationship, “…And baby I stayed with you so long that I lost myself, now who would’ve thought that someone so independent, become [darn] submissive…” She even reveals that she sometimes misses her ex, however she is convinced that she will get through it, because she no longer requires his presence, “So I’ll stare at your picture for the last time, to ease my mind; this time I won’t even break down and cry…”

This song has the message, and overall feeling that is inherent to an anthem.  It has that reverberating and empowering chant “don’t need you, don’t need you, don’t need you, don’t need you no more” that is sure to remain lodged in your head.  The vocals are as effortless and well executed as ever, with the ad-libs being consistently well done.

[Review] “Matter”, “Regret” and “Love Rollercoaster”

by on Aug.23, 2009, under LETOYANEWS FEATURES, REVIEWS

Matter

“Matter” finds LeToya playing the role of the eager other woman, “…you got somebody who just ain’t gone cut it mayne, she don’t do what I do, she on her own thang; I wanna look out for you, do all the things she can’t…”

This record remains true to LeToya’s R&B foundation, her voice resonating with the production.  The vocal arrangements and melodies hit very hard, almost as though they were in a (friendly) competition with the beat.  It would be interesting to sit in on a studio session with LeToya, to have firsthand experience with the process she uses to come up with such vocal conviction.
