Album Notes
Personnel: Leela James (vocals).
Recording information: Platinum Sound, New York, NY; Bennett Studios, Englewood, NJ.
Within the opening minutes of Leela James's debut, A CHANGE IS GONNA COME, the full-voiced performer name-checks both Chaka Khan and Marvin Gaye. Evoking these revered soul artists is quite appropriate, since James deftly incorporates elements of these singers' styles into her own bold, funk-inflected R&B music. (Another soul hero, Sam Cooke, is acknowledged on the title track, a cover of his classic hit.)
Instead of being carried by samples and slick production, James's 2005 debut is rooted in a full guitar/bass/drums sound that nods to the 1970s, without giving up its more modern edge. In fact, artist-of-the-moment Kanye West handles production duties here, along with Wyclef Jean, Raphael Saadiq, and others, giving James's record the added jolts of energy needed to make it a formidable outing. From the urgent "Music" to the bass-heavy "Rain" and the sultry "Mistreating Me," this is contemporary R&B for people who think they don't like contemporary R&B.

Editorial Reviews
4 discs out of 5 - On her stirring debut, James's husky vocals ring out like a thunderous prayer for love finally answered.
Vibe

4 stars out of 5 - [A] powerful, rich voice wrapped up in husky velvet singing some mightily impressive self-penned songs. Hugeness beckons.

    With producers like Kanye, Wyclef, and Raphael Saadiq, Leela's debut album is an amazing set of sultry tracks reminiscent of Angie Stone... but breathier.
