Lalah has a captivating voice with deep undertones. I have had this CD on heavy rotation for the last month. It's about love spirituality and self awakenings. It's fantastic music at it's best. Thanks Lalah for this warm and insightful CD.

This is REAL music from a phenomenal source of TRUE talent. I have this CD in my car and CANNOT stop playing it. The production is lush, amazing, something you can ride up the coast to. And Lalah's voice, as always, is like BUTTER. I recommend this CD to all who possess eclectic yet refined and adult tastes and who like to surround themselves in the finer accountrements in music. I can't wait for her next album.
Lalah, we hear and love you! Excellent music to vibe too! September 9, 2008 5 out of 6 found this review helpful

This is quite possibly the best album from Hathaway (counting even her collaboration with Sample). If you're in the mood for a Sade-type CD - consistent, smooth, nuanced and worthy of repeated listening, it doesn't get much better than this. My only reservation would be the CD artwork - it's as unexceptional as the album is sophisticated. This impeccable CD deserves a classier look.
Following Her Father's Legacy August 25, 2008 Lalah Hathaway like Donny Hathaway has such a spirit in his voice that it could bring you to tears and everytime I hear his daughter sing I am reminded of it. This project, every track is so moving, emotional and heartfelt that it leaves you wanting more. And the collabo with Rashaun Patterson is such a perfect fit with his vocal range that you just sing along with admiration, then replay it again. I can't say enough good things about this Self Portrait but that it looks and sounds like a classic Hathaway.
