Review: Kiki Sheard "Bold, Right Life"

My live Twitter review of "Bold Right Life"
Track 1 - Kiki looks more like Karen Clark now. "Won't Hold Back" is an insane track produced by her brother JDS. Got a club feel to it
Track 2 - "Wave Your Banner" is something for the house heads and overseas audience
Track 3 - "My Boyfriend" speaks to making Jesus Christ your boyfriend/ best friend/ boo & not getting caught up in some of the knuckle heads out here
Track 4 - "Invisible" has that CCM crossover potential & is produced by Tammi & Gerald Haddon (Deitrick Haddon's kinfolk).
Track 5 - "Love Like Crazy" is my JOINT!!! Co-produced by Eric Dawkins of Dawkins & Dawkins fame & Warryn Campbell of Mary Mary fame. BANGIN'
Track 6 - I saw Kiki perform "Like David" live @ For Sisters Only a couple months ago. The crazy thing is I thought it was a PAJAM joint. ASAPH WARD!
Track 7 - "Praise Him Now" is the obligatory "take 'em to church" track but KIKI really shows her vocal range here
Track 8 - Asaph Ward wins again on "Oh Lord" and Kiki gets a lot of writing done on this project. Her voice is mature and she definitely is grown
Track 9 - "If It Had Not Been" is definitely a hand clapper. Baby Dubb got it in on this. Kiki has produced 3 albums that should be in the R&B section
Track 10 - "One" is self explanatory. There is only ONE way to get to where HE is.
Track 11 - Go head Kiki & get that CCM nod! "Jesus" is filled w/ lush acoustics and harmonious melodies. Very dope and relevant. I can dig it!
