Free Music Review: Best of Copeland's great work
Hit: 5 Stars
This is the best of all the CD's Copeland has out. What makes it stand above the rest? There is not a weak cut on the album. The pure musicality, coupled with the lyrical content of each song, makes this her numero uno CD. Then, there is the powerful voice of Shemekia Copeland. There is absolutely no doubt that this woman can really sing. She ably demonstrates her vocal talents on this CD.
As on all her CD's, the music can not be pigeonholed. She incorporates rock, soul, and even a tiny bit of country/folk, into this CD. It's all good.
Wicked Poster
Once upon a time (circa 1998), the daughter of a blues legend burst onto the scene with her own potentially legendary debut, Turn the Heat Up. I say "potentially" because, although all the necessary ingredients were there, they didn't quite represent the best of what Shemekia Copeland is obviously capable of. A few more years to hone her voice and allow it to reach its natural maturity, and Copeland could produce an album that would challenge some of the reigning royalty of the blues. Wicked is not that album. It is, however, a stunningly good piece of work, with solid songs (Copeland's contributing more to the songwriting, too), a greater variety of styles, and some serious genre-bending that will turn the heads of those used to the more straight-ahead blues of Copeland's last effort. The album even opens with a rocker, "It's 2 a.m.," and Copeland pokes fun at all those pseudo-R&B true-love ballads littering the airwaves lately with her own "The Fool You're Looking For." The fact that Wicked still represents more potential than realization is actually quite refreshing, too. It gives her growing legions of fans something to look forward to, as we realize that the best is still yet to come. --Genevieve WilliamsBlues Music CDs
