2 out of 5 stars What?.......2007-04-05

I really wanted to like this album. Honestly, I really did. Her voice is beautiful and she definitely has a lot of soul, but the songs just aren't cutting it for me. Being a former Erykah Badu backup vocalist, I expected something at least a little out of the ordinary, a little quirky, something unique. But I didn't get it. The songs and production are generic, if not cheesy. They could've been done by absolutely anyone. They have no personality. They are boring and I could not make it through this album without pressing the skip button in the middle of almost every track. (That's when you know the song is doomed, and it's not going to get better.) The only songs I like, or even remember for that matter, are the "Yah Intro," "Bury It" and "Baby Love." The title track's alright. Words cannot express my disappointment. I hope she comes with it next time around, if there is one.

4 out of 5 stars I love those old re-runs!.......2006-07-04

The "Hear Me" album was a breath of fresh air in an era when quality offerings are few and far between. My main gripe with blackstar is ITS EXACTLY THE SAME! The producers have gone into the studio, placed the CD in pressed the randomize button! Strong album, the girl can clearly sing but we've been waiting 4 years for new material.

4 out of 5 stars 3.5 stars. Great soul, but ok material.......2006-01-03

I own YahZarah's indie album Hear Me. While blackstar isn't bad, I do agree with the reviewer that it suffers from so-so material compared to Hear Me. The beats are banging though. Hope to hear more from her soon.

4 out of 5 stars Justus League's #1 Lady!.......2005-12-30

I'm a late-commer of the Justus League b/w of Boot Camp Click's latest efforts. After listening to 9th Wonder & Buckshot's "Chemistry" I heard more about Little Brother and got their latest, "The Minstrel Show." That was love so I got the other two CD's by them and also Foreign Exchange which all feature a beautiful female vocal held down by Yahzarah. She really stood out alongside Phonte Coleman/Percy Miracles (of LB) and wanted to see if she had some stuff on her own. Sho'nuff she does and has a new one (import) but I check the sound clips on her 2003 effort. I'm awake now! This young lady is on the rise and with or without the help of the JL or Erykah, She has my utmost support.

4 out of 5 stars Black Star Is Born.......2004-07-17

Yahzarah has much potential. She has a strong voice and great style.
