Editor's review
The second album from the R&B up-and-comer features brassy vocals that are as closely related to gritty hip-hop as sultry singing. That fits with Lumidee's beat-riddled soundtrack, which sees her giving sexy balladry a hard urban edge. It's like she commands: "Come on, toughen up."
Biography
Former Universal Motown artist Lumidee has signed with TVT and plans to release her sophomore album, "Unexpected," in March 2007. The set is led by the single "Like The Wind" featuring Tony Sunshine, a revise of Patrick Swayze's Dirty Dancing hit "She's Like the Wind."
"Unexpected" will be the follow-up to 2003's "Almost Famous," which has sold 276,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The Caribbean-flavored lead single "Never Leave You (Uh Oh)" peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.
"I'm coming out of left field," says Lumidee of her new offering. "Nobody ever thought of me coming back on a street credible label like TVT, alongside acts like Pitbull, Lil Jon and the Ying Yang Twins. Actually, nobody ever thought of me really even coming back, period."(Billboard)
