Pros: Interesting Debut
Cons: ...a one-hit wonder?
She is one wild seed, one wild flower. Dionne Farris' career may have stalled after the release of her 1994 debut CD as a solo artist but still, her music edged to the forefront of pop and R&B in 1995. Thanks to the guitar-driven catchy chorus of "I Know".
"Wild Seed - Wild Flower" was released in October 1994. Classified as alternative hip-hop, Farris' music carries strong influences of the band she was a part before. If you have heard the song "Tennessee" by the group Arrested Development, then you have heard Farris strong alto voice before. The follow-up single "Don't Ever Touch Me (Again)" further solidified Farris' versatility in singing and songwriting. Lenny Kravitz even lent Farris a hand in penning the track "Stop To Think". She even dared to cross boundaries as she attempts to cover The Beatles' "Blackbird". Her truth seeking queries in "Human", done in a cappella style, sealed the deal that this wild seed will indeed give rise to a wild flower.
Though silent for almost a decade now, Farris is rumoured to be working on a new album as of writing.
Dionne Farris is awesome. She's a truly gifted artist. I finally got my hand on this work, and I'm never letting go! She's so passionate. If you need a personal anthem, you can find it in one of Dionne's songs!!!
YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!
I always knew this woman had what it takes to go solo. Check this album out if you can. It is well worth it. The album should have been promoted better because Dionne is star in my mind!
