album review

Lady Love had several projected release dates across 2008 and early 2009, eventually landing in August 2009. Involving production and songwriting input from a great number of people -- including Tank, Ne-Yo, Ron Feemster, Ron Felder, and Elvis Williams -- and 15 tracks deep, it's just as scattered and uneven as LeToya's self-titled debut, and sounds even more fussed-over, even without the knowledge about its delays. That does not mean there is a shortage of high points. "Regret," with a significant sonic resemblance to Mary Mary's "God in Me" (from the rat-a-tat snares to the alternately gliding and prodding vocal attack), is a mesmeric kiss-off. The pummeling "She Ain't Got," nearly overloaded with assaultive sounds from every direction, is startlingly brash. On the melancholy "Take Away Love," LeToya proves to be a good fit for Ryan Leslie's meringue-light yet affecting melodic sense. Despite so many involved hands, the album is clearly directed toward the pop market, heavier on gleaming synthesizers and in-your-face production. It's too bad that it wasn't attained with more focused results (with fewer cooks). ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide

      • Classic album...

      • Classic albums are only dememed "classic" in hindsight. I truly believe that in a few years fans of great music will look back on this album and agree. Overall, this is a very solid album. LeToya has shown exponential growth both vocally and qualitatively. “Lady Love” is a much more mature effort than the debut; it’s appeal is broader than that of “LeToya” as well. Fans will definitely be pleased, but more importantly, those who didn’t give LeToya a chance the first time around, will most assuredly check her out now. The inclusion of the song “Love Roller Coaster” may seem strange to some, but that song accurately sums up the entire “Lady Love” experience nicely, “It goes up and down and around and ’round, it goes up and down, around and ’round and ’round and ’round we go!” Oh but what a journey it is!!
        Best album of 2009; easily.
