Nyla

"The album's last six songs are particularly heavy, as if Ambrosius recorded the first nine, felt she needed one more to finish it off, wrote and recorded half a dozen for consideration, and chose to keep the lot since they're all purposeful and of approximately equal quality. Yearning hooks over winding grooves remain Ambrosius' sure-fire combination, delivered most potently early on in "Flood," the closest the album gets to "Far Away," and "I Got It Bad," rhythmically an immediate descendant of D'Angelo's "Spanish Joint."".

"Marsha Ambrosius, an R&B singer's R&B singer, is responsible for co-writing one of pop's most intoxicating odes to infatuation. That would be Michael Jackson's "Butterflies," perhaps the star's finest post-Bad single, where his inimitable vocal quavers slam home all the tingly, head-over-heels couplets. So it's no surprise that Ambrosius excels in this mode on her new album Nyla, her third as a soloist and fifth if you're counting her work in the neo-soul duo Floetry".
