Nikki Jean

uh, y'know, the sounds that sound good together... sometimes... and sometimes sounds like the disgusting "squish squish" sound Slicker's mom makes whenever she walks

Nikki Jean

Post by Diabolical »

Anyone heard of her?

I heard her last month on Letterman and thought she had a great voice, so I picked up her album a few days ago for like $6 or $7.

I don't know how to describe her music, but her cd booklet describes her style as a combination of Pop, Motown and Philly Soul with a bit of hip-hop, which I guess is pretty close.
She worked with Burt Bacharach, Carole King, Carly Simon and Bob Dylan - and this is her debut album.
There are only a couple of weak tunes on the album, IMO. Some deeper, more meaningful songs would have been nice, but I still really dig it. She'll be amazing if continues to grow as a song writer.

She has a few tunes on facebook:

I have not heard of her, but the clips you linked to sound pretty stellar.

Where was the album that cheap?

I got mine at Best Buy.
Bestbuy.com has it listed at regular price of $9.99.

I see that Amazon has it for $10.06 and Deepdiscount.com has it for $8.12 (but I see they changed their free shipping policy to a $15 minimum).
