4 out of 5 stars Nice Departure.......2003-10-20

This CD is a great departure from the mainstream music. I stumbled on the CD by accident. Melky Sedeck has a song on the Disappearing Acts soundtrack that I loved, so I checked this CD out. I am glad I made this purchase. My favorite track is the last one, Paradise.

5 out of 5 stars What happens when you mix Hip-Hop and Neo-Soul!.......2003-07-01

Wow! This two really surprised me. The first time I saw them was on Motown Live when they performed "High Heel Shoes" and "Attraction" and spoke about they got this project "Sister And Brother" together. Besides the fact that they are Sister and Brother, their aim to get all their Sista's and Brotha's to listen to this. The album has some real Funk, R&B, Reggae, Hip-Hop, Rap, Neo-Soul, Gospel and a great feel to it. Great standout Hip-Hop/Neo-Soul songs are: Shake It, Foolish Heart, Lady, Raw, High Heel Shoes and Attraction. They even do some Classical Movement in: Mi Amor, a beautiful ballad. Well, what more do I need to say. It's a mixture of Erykah Badu, D'Angelo, Angie Stone and more mixed together. Definately something to cop!

5 out of 5 stars Where is "tragedy" ?.......2002-01-16

Wow, what a brilliant surprise!just when you think nobodys doing any decent groundbreaking soul except the usual suspects ,D'Angelo,Badu,Maxwell,Angie Stone,Rachelle Farrelle along comes this bomb.I read in The Penguin Encyclopaedia of Popular Music that "the good stuff doesn't sell" hence my purchase for ten aussie dollars brand new of this beautiful recording.One sour note however.The U.S. issue has Wyclef Jean credited with Guitar on the nonexistant "Tragedy",get it together production department.It appears on overpriced Japanese import copies.MCA are not the only company to indulge the thoroughly annoying habit of giving Japanese listeners more music for their money,gggrrrr.Clive Davis and others hear my plea.Bonus tracks for all I say.Mica Paris' "Black Angel" ,Rachelle Farrelles'"Individuality" and now this, rock my world.Buy it and funk down.

5 out of 5 stars The Goodness.......2001-01-07

This CD is like a testimonial. There is a saying that everybody's got a story, well Melky Sedeck are wonderful narrators and tell their story with such lyrical styling. Songs like "Lady" the words in the song should be a national anthem for young ladies...."I man will be a man, that I know....Just because he slept in your bed last night doesnt mean he's yours for life". A Woman is sexy and classy, works seven days a week so the kids can eat. "Paradise" makes you feel just that...on an island sippin' tropical punch aspiring for that paradise right here at home with your significant other.

Rather than give a description of every track on the hot album.....Check it out for yourself.

By the way, its nothing like the style of older brother Wyclef.....Melky Sedeck surpass the mediocre style of there brother with a depth in lyrics and a smoothness in musical style that is demonstrative of what should be in soul music and not what sells.

5 out of 5 stars Intelligent, Funky, Classically Wonderful Music - (Really!).......2000-08-29

This truly is a set of beautifully different music. It is so good to get a breath of freash music in an age of cookie cutter songs. Though they pay homage to great songs, styles, and musicians; yet, they keep it fresh and real. I just loved what they did with Sweet Honey In The Rock's 'My Lament' when they turned it into 'Mi Amor'. The song 'Raw' is just that - Raw! On this CD, you will not be cheated because the WHOLE CD is great! It is one of those that you listen to and love every song.

To Melky Sedeck thanks for doing a great job.
