India Arie seems comfortable in her own body. She told us as much on both "Video" and "Brown Skin" from her stunning debut album, Acoustic Soul, which celebrated the diversity of feminine beauty, self-acceptance, and spirituality. She addresses similar themes on her second outing, although much of her original soul-scouring fire is gone. While she still preaches self-empowerment, many of her lyrics veer toward the trite, and that's not where we expected to go on this Voyage to India. In fact, there are very few self-revelatory moments like the ones on Soul. Arie seems bent on journeying to the center of womankind's mind, rather than unearthing more of her own autobiography, casting herself as adviser to the disempowered. But that is not where Arie shines. When she strips her voice down to its unvarnished essence--leaving all the imperfections in the mix--she is a lithe, ethereal presence. She's capable of raising chills, as when she sings of a man who foretells his death on "Good Man." Or on "Complicated Man," where she lets her voice run ragged, brimming with raw emotion while describing her imperfect love. Despite some glibness, this is still a voyage worth taking. --Jaan Uhelszki

I love this CD October 28, 2007
India Arie is a very talented and gifted singer. She gives a great messege to those aspiring female singers out there that you don't have to show your body or get in trouble with the law in order to have a successful singing career. She sings of the everyday feels of females, without the drama.
She don't waste time with the weaves and expensive jeans and dresses to show that you can have a beautiful voice and spirit.
I love all her cds and music.
She's got my attention October 10, 2007

India Arie is an artist that is obviously overlooked by the music industry. This woman is fantastic. She works with some of the best musicians in the business and she is one herself. India has a buttery smooth voice and her message is positive for women, her lyrics are loving toward men. She is very introspective and spiritual. I will continue to purchase her work.
