Production on the project is Stellar,reminiscent of Amy Winehouse mixed with some elements of Solange's album. "The Bridge" sounds much older/more mature than some of today's music. Melanie emerges amongst a time where looks outweigh talent .There's only about a handful of female R&B artist that can actually sing, and she's one of them.She possesses a sultry voice. Some tracks like " Please Don't Go" keep the album from becoming boring, it has a do wop feel to them, Straight out of the Temptations era." Walk On By" never made a scorned female sound so good.Though "Give It To Me Right" was the first single,"It Kills Me" Displays just enough of the vocals to entice a listener ,and the production on the track is crazy groovy. As a new artist she has a ways to go . But her album is pretty solid. One of those chilled grooves you play at a moderate volume until that one track comes on that you just can't help but blast.
Stand out tracks: "Give It To Me Right" "You Stop My Heart" " It Kills Me"
On The Groove Scale .... It Registers a 7.5
