Out of all Missy’s protégé’s hands down Tweet was the best one of them all. Her debut cd Southern Hummingbird is still one of the best of cd’s to date in the Neo-Soul era. Where do I begin on this cd first it is a soulful ride from beginning to end that you won’t forget. Let me get to the weak songs to avoid by all means skip Boogie 2nite & Make Ur Move. These two tracks kinda weigh down what is otherwise a well rounded cd. Now I will admit I am 50/50 on the lead single Oops (Oh My) feat Missy it’s an every now and then type song I think. Everything else on the cd is heat straight heat you don’t skip any song you let it roll. Shockingly hot song is Smoking Cigarettes title doesn’t let you know how hot the song is at all. This cd is beyond emotional Tweet put her heart and soul into this cd that can be felt in songs like Drunk, Always Will & Beautiful. You feel the pain and know that Tweet been through something with these songs. She does venture into an up tempo track with Call Me not a bad song and she does pull it off but it’s not as strong as the other soulful songs on this cd like Heaven & Complain & Motel. The standout track on this cd is Best Friend feat Bilal this song will make you a Bilal fan you aren’t one. We all can relate to this song about having feelings for a friend but can’t cross that line.
This cd is a must have for your Neo Soul collection because it is incomplete without it. I gotta give this cd a 4 out of 5 FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
