Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Dynamite made her name as the UK's best female garage MC. She was single-handedly responsible for making Sticky's Boo! a top-twenty hit in 2001 and looked set to become the next big thing from the UK's two-step scene. Instead, the 21-year-old North Londoner shipped herself off to New York and made an album of R&B. While A Little Deeper is good it pales alongside competition from artists such as Lauryn Hill, Mary J Blige or the similarly youthful Alicia Keys. Dynamite's natural blend of ragga, hip-hop and garage chat has virtually disappeared to be replaced by a semi-decent nasal singing voice. The only thing that now differentiates Dynamite from her American contemporaries is that she swears more. The addition of played-out US rapper Nas on "Afraid To Fly" is another sign that A Little Deeper is a prepackaged product for American consumption. The album has a couple of outstanding moments, particularly on "Dy-na-mi-tee" when this oldest of 11 brothers and sisters soulfully narrates the tale of her upbringing. "The Natural High" interlude is also spine-tingling as she slips back to her pirate-radio roots in a tirade against drugs. At 55 seconds it's not enough, leaving the album more sparkler than Dynamite. --Jake Barnes

Description

5.0 out of 5 stars Nu Soul Explosion, 26 Sep 2002
By A Customer
A totally surprising album....

Having read so many reviews that called it a 'garage' album, I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that this work has pure SOUL. That is, it's soul with an edge! Reminiscent of early Lauryn Hill with a UK flava. More from the heart rather than 'from the street'. A very personal and heartfelt CD packed with tune after tune that is guaranteed to get you hooked! How can someone so young, articulate so well?

This is a real treat, totally dynamic and well deserving of many more accolades.

Tell your friends, come the revolution...this woman has raw talent and isn't afraid to share it!!

This CD moved me and it will move you too.

4.0 out of 5 stars A really powerful album, 11 Oct 2002
By A Customer
I have to say I am not the biggest hip-hop expert, so my review might be a little naive....but here's my impressions anyway.
I bought this cd because "It takes more" was the soundtrack of an otherwise horrible working assignment abroad, and the song just refused to get out of my head. I also read a couple of interviews with Ms Dynamite (-ee), and I thought she was incredibly articulate and original.

While the quality of the tunes is very mixed, there are some really powerful songs and in general the cd confirms my first impressions. Songs like Dy-na-mi-tee, Put him out, Sick'n'Tired, Brother (and of course It takes more) keep playing over and over and over in your head; the lyrics are highly political and full of real life in it....which takes lots of courage to do on your first album.
The "official" Amazon review is really quite denigratory...don't let it put you off. Lauryn Hill it ain't (yet!), but this is a great album that will fill you with energy and the real "girl-power".

...Maybe a 21-year-old girl with lots of things to say and a really loud voice to shout them is just too much to take for some people....

5.0 out of 5 stars Doin the UK Proud, 6 Sep 2002
I cant recommend this album enough...although people are used to Ms Dynamite MC'ing, and some have complained of this album because of a lack of that, she has a unique voice and a superb talent in singing.
This is one of those albums where you just have to listen the whole way through every time.
Not every song is a classic, but there are no bad tracks, the whole album is one enjoyable whole.
Stand out tracks however, include Dy-na-mi-tee, Brother, Afraid To Fly, Krazy Krush and the cover of Too Experianced.
This girl represents the best talent in the UK, and throughly deserves her success.
If you are looking at this, dont just think about buying the album, DO IT. I GURANTEE you will not be dissapointed...if you like music you will love this album.
