    Typical R&B album. Kelly manages to put out music within Beyonce's shadow and is unable to create her own unique niche in the music industry, instead she comes off bland and generic.

    I'm feeling this album! It would be a crime if she doesn't get the credit that is do her for putting out a really hot sophomore album.

    This is a good album & my girl, Kelly, is growing. She doesn't need rappers or hooks, just sing!. You'lI love her ballad, This is Love, where her voice is beautiful. Kelly, Don't Hold Back!

    I really think that Kelly did a very good job on this album she definitaly has a strong voice and has proved to be better then most artists in this industry... her songs are her own and you have to judge this album from that perspective...

    Kelly has stepped out of the Beyonce shadow and into her own defining sound and style. Her voice is strong and beautiful, and her CD is really good. I love it already after just one day of lessoning.

    Her voice is strong and many of the songs are captivating, but some of the lyrics in the later songs lose my attention with repitition.

    This is a solid performance from Ms. Kelly. I was impressed to see that there were several hott tracks on this album. Unlike some of the other reviews I have seen online I think that In love with my Ex is actually the weakest track on this album. I'm much more impressed with "Work" "Flashback" and Comeback" these are super hot tracks that show Kelly's musical diversity and This is a solid performance from Ms. Kelly.

    Ms. Kelly has definitely come into her own! The sound is disticntly hers, and I actually think Beyonce should listen to this album and take some notes (note #1..."I don't need to yell on every song to get my point across!) Kelly shows us her versatility, and that she can croon about love lost while still having fun (Work!)...Get it Ms.Kelly!!!

    Though still short of career-defining, "Ms. Kelly" finds its author opening up more while welcoming the possibility that destiny may just find another star.

    The material tends to be kind of insidious, rather than hitting you immediately or going through one ear and out the other, and it's significantly more R&B-oriented.

    Ms. Kelly, though, has some points to prove, foremost among them that this songbird can rock.
