    Fortunately Pieces of Me, the album, shrugs off this burden [of having the same title as an Ashlee Simpson's single], leaving Ledisi to revel in longing, pride and exhortation--and of course in her voice, a big, expressive instrument that stops just shy of strident.

    It could use a couple throw-you-around-the-room rockers in the vein of Turn Me Loose's "Runnin'" and "Knockin'," although some listeners will be so struck by the sustained high level of confidence and grace that it won't be an issue.

    The Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter takes a major leap forward with this vivacious, smartly conceived work.

    The deployment of cliched lyrics and programmatic rhythm tracks undermines her message of determined individualism.

    [Ledisi] drops a healthy spoonful of sugar into her heady brew, though adding the odd espresso shot would have kept everything a little less drowsy. [24 Jun 2011, p.75]
