4 out of 5 stars Well Produced R&B Female Trio.......2006-11-06

Living in Indianapolis, what put this project on my radar was that the executive produce was then Indiana Pacer Ron Artest. This project was released less than a week after the infamous 2004 brawl in Detroit (just after Artest was suspended for the rest of the year), and less than a month after Artest said he wanted time off from the team to work on music (which he says he was joking). This project shows he's as good at music as he is on the basketball court (Artest is one of the best defenders in the NBA).

I always enjoy female singers, and I loved the sound of the harmonies and the background music. The only thing that made me uncomfortable: on the same project is the very seductive "Sitting At Home" and a wonderful Gospel Interlude. On the liner notes, all three singers start off praising Jesus. I'm not them, but as a Christian I consider the two paradoxal and not belonging on the same project, and I would not be comfortable singing or producing "Sitting At Home." Just my opinion.

If you like female trios and R&B, and don't mind an occassional rap, you would enjoy this project.

3 out of 5 stars What a Shame... 3 1/2 stars for effort.......2006-08-23

I used to love this group with their first two albums, but with the departure of Linnie and a major label it definitely shows negatively on this album. My favorite would be " Let Him Go", "Relax and Unwind", which took a couple of listens,"Stay", and "Long Lost Love" . There's great ballads which are better than the uptempos. On the flipside, you do get to see more vocal skills from Lalisha and Akissa. They need to get on a better known record label and get their stuff heard. Don't count these girls out, I'll still support ya'll thats what a real Allure fan does.

5 out of 5 stars Underated Soul Trio.......2006-04-17

I guess radio stations and video channels think one girl group is enough but they missed out on this hot cd. Too bad for Allure. The songs on this cd are far more better than Destiny's flop of an album in 05'. There should be room for everybody in the music industry not just the commercially viable sell out groups.

3 out of 5 stars Good Effort By An Underrated Group.......2004-12-20

Allure "Chapter III" marks the 3rd album by this beautiful, talented, yet highly underrated group from the NYC. The album does have its high points: "Hate 2 Luv U" is a song that makes you feel like it's summer lovin' all over again, "Long Lost Love" and "Frustration" are pure R&B/Soul at its tightest, and "Sitting At Home" sways like a swing at the playground. However, a few tracks take a while to really get into: "Can't Stay Here With You" has an odd ragga beat but the girls harmonize so sweetly throughout, "Uh Oh" is a groovy reggae/dancehall track with a cloudy hook, and "Relax and Unwind" requires a few listens before you really feel it.

Overall, a solid effort from Allure. Highlights include: "Hate 2 Luv U", "Long Lost Love", "Sitting At Home" and "Frustration".

3 out of 5 stars Not So Alluring.......2004-11-30

The song "Hate To Love You" is a remake of 3LW "Hate To Love You" that can be found on the "LOVE DONT COST A THING" soundtrack. That is the movie with Christina Milian and Nick Cannon. It is the same exact song.
