Artist: Chrisette Michele
Album: Let Freedom Reign
Label: Def Jam

This is exactly what I hear when listening to the “Let Freedom Reign” album. I will agree Chrisette‘s 3rd album is different from 1 and 2, but with anything in life there comes change. If a woman is done wrong in some period of her life, she should have her moment to get mad, vent, bust the windows out his car, tie him up and make him think she is going to blow him up, lol! or which-ever way she decides to handle the situation, but after a period of time, she needs to get real, dry up the tears, hold her head up and at least act like she’s okay. She needs to live again, love again, “Let Freedom Reign.” Staying in that state of mind will mess with ones mind, and nothing is worth all that. Getting back in the ball game of the living and being happy, is what I get from Chrisette‘s new album. She may not be totally over whatever it is she was going through(and I hear that to), but I applaud her for at least trying to move on to bigger and better heights, and not stay stuck in the past. Although I love those sad, crying songs (nothing but the blues), there’s only so much of the blues any person can take.  Seems to me Chrisette have progressed tremendously, and there’s so many women young and old, going through some of the same stuff Chrisette, and many other artist are going through with, love, relationships, and other mayhem(life). Sorta like (1st)Elementry, (2nd)High School (7-12), (3rd)College, waiting to really experience life. Chrisette reminds me so much of my daughter(who introduced her music to me), and they both need to get their happy back and have some peace or is it peace and be happy. In order to appreciate “Let Freedom Reign” a person is really going to have to listen, and understand exactly what she is saying. She have great messages in her songs, that helps many women, and I love that. It doesn’t matter what Chrisette Michele sing I always hear that jazz influence, her voice echoes so lovely. What I really like about many of her hooks is that she gives you solutions and tell young girls how to be like track one “Fairy Tales & Castles” to “So Cool” and “Goodbye Game” I love. She is really Letting “Freedom Reign” I say Kudos to Chrisette for a job well done.
