Reviews"...The singer showcases her classical piano training atop slow and somber percussion...her deep soulful voice and heartfelt delivery carry the songs...", 4 Stars Out of 5-"...Frequently Stunning....Keys Soars like a Young Aretha Franklin...", 3 stars out of 5 - "...Keys shows a maturity beyond her years...suggesting down-home R&B contemporaries like Jill Scott as well as yesteryear's soul sophisticates...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "With her classically trained voice and keyboard chops, Keys reintroduced the idea of a self-reliant R&B singer-songwriter -- a type that stretches back to Stevie Wonder.", "...A Debut Full of Promise..."-Rating: B, 4 stars out of 5 - "...A prime candidate to head up the nu-soul revolution...with a voice that challenges Mary J. Blige's....Key's R&B trips to a fundamentally more old-skool set of values....Her sincerity is another plus...", Ranked #2 in Rolling Stone's "Top 10 2001"., 3 stars out of 5 -- "SONGS IN A MINOR has dated well -- cuts the likes of 'Fallin'' and 'A Woman's Worth' still sound fresh.", Included in Q Magazine's "100 Greatest Albums Ever", Ranked #27 in Mojo's "Best 40 Albums of 2001".
