Shall I proceed?

YES INDEED!


Can't get enough of this woman right now.


"...she's probably one of the least empty and most substantive vocalists in R&B. Her voice is a magnificent instrument of virtuosity. She transitions from different sonic textures with agility: jazz, gospel, blues, even opera. In one moment she mewls like a vulnerable kitten. Then, the emotion wells up inside of her swaying body, erupts from her mouth and soars to the rafters in a satisfying musical catharsis, a powerful antidote to the antiseptic, digitized nano-noise we've grown accustomed to in recent years...The live show is better than the album in the way the book is usually better than the movie."
