    Consistently admirable, but unlikely to get the charts into a tizzy.

    Stone Love... spreads it thick with bells, harps, string sections and expert evocations of grooviness. These affectations are starting to swallow up her talent.
  5. Q Magazine
    40
    Sounds derivative and over-produced. [Sep 2004, p.123]

    The first six tracks or so of Stone Love are as good a soundtrack to summer as you're likely to get this year... Thereafter it's an interminable sea of coma-inducing ballads. [Sep 2004, p.104]

    Throughly enjoyed it. Consistantly reminds me of what real "soulful" music sounds like. Not a whole lot of unneccessary oohs and aahs as is Throughly enjoyed it. Consistantly reminds me of what real "soulful" music sounds like. Not a whole lot of unneccessary oohs and aahs as is present in many female artist today. Sexy but not explicit (big plus for me). Title tracts "Remy Red" and "Cinderella" are supa hot!! Well done, Angie!!!… Full Review »
