It's been a long four years since Angela Johnson's last solo album, the acclaimed 'It's Personal', but already critics and reviewers are calling this new one her best work yet. I'll need a few more spins to make that sweeping commitment, but I'd certainly start by saying that on 'Naturally Me', the ex Cooly's Hot Box girl sounds much more mature while her songs show a new breadth, revealing her ideas on a variety of topics. Apart from examining the reality of relationships, Angela also touches on social injustice, motherhood and politics and also finds time to offer a committed homage to one of her soul heroines - Teena Marie.
