Cons: I wish there were more tracks
I didn't think she could match or even do better than her debut cd, but boy was I wrong. I love the WHOLE cd. Her voice is hypnotic.

Pro Reviews: It's Me Again
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews If It's Me Again had a couple more uptempo tracks and fewer scene jackings from Missy Elliott, it would have no trouble matching the greatness of 2002's Southern Hummingbird. Elliott's berserk (not Bazerk) squawks vandalize return single "Turn da Lights Off," a Kwamé coproduction touched by oldschool elegance and vinyl crackle à la Monica's "So Gone" another moment when Elliott should've been blocked from the vocal booth. (Get on the bus, indeed; where are Road to Stardom judges Teena Marie and Dallas Austin when you need them?) Like on Southern Hummingbird, slow tempos and spare arrangements dominate, but restlessness is bound to set in during the latter half. Though few songs are secondrate, their similarities make them bleed into each other too much. Additionally, nothing on the album is as magnetic or odd as "Oops (Oh My)," which to be fair had to be expected. Several inspired songs do make It's Me Again desirable, so there's really no reason why anyone should think of Tweet as a onehit wonder. Besides, she's far too charming and bewitching, serving heavy dosages of wisdom and sweetness. "Iceberg"'s offkilter combination of pricklish acoustic guitar and widely spaced beats make you feel like you're getting a toe tickling and a deep tissue massage simultaneously; "Things I Don't Mean," a laidback discofunk jam, is unique in its form of regret ("I didn't mean the lie when I said to you, 'You make me sick, you can pack your sht, I'ma be alright with or without you'"); "Two of Us," shared with daughter Tashawna, will be thought of as sweet by any parent and corny by just about anyone else. While this followup doesn't make any improvements on the debut, it'll please fans. That said, if Tweet doesn't shake things up a little and takes another three years to make her third album, she shouldn't be surprised if she loses a good chunk of her audience. - Andy Kellman, All Music Guide |

Pros: Tweet is definitely a soulful sound
Cons: Marketing will be the reason she doesnt do well
Tweet is a great artist. The CD is fantastic. Although it mirrors her debut Southern Hummingbird as far as content and song arrangement, it is definitely a more mature effort. Track #4 is a duet with Rell that is very easy listening, ironically Track #4 on her first CD is her duet with Bilal. It would have been interesting to see her mix up the format a little.
Marketing was the reason why Tweet has never captured the limelight that she deserves or even the recognition of being a soulful new sound in a market that is over saturated with studio singers. Her last singles were upbeat and were not a good reflection of the album. In fact they were the only uptempo songs on the album with the exception of one more.
'Cab Ride/Taxi' is a instant classic, and I will give it to 'Sports, Sex, & Food' for its funny but real lyrics. And on 'I'm Done', the Mary J. Blige/Rose Royce line 'It's a vacany love don't live here anymore is so telling. She decided not to sample the song, just that one line to reiterate that she is done with. I look forward to hearing more Tweet on the radio without her mentor Missy on the hook, the bridge, intro, or remix. Good luck ...
