Pros: Dynamic, powerful vocals; exceptional lyrics for a pop record. Cons: Occasionally overproduced; some filler; track sequence.
I like to think that I have fairly accurate gut reactions when it comes to the music I should purchase. For instance, I had never heard anything by or read anything written about Kelly Hogan before I picked up a copy of her 2000 disc Beneath the...
Pros: Excellent, watch her shine! Cons: Mixed voice on the first trach should go.
Something is luring about Nikka’s long bountiful hair and these scrumptious eyes that seem to be luministic yet be witching. As I am flipping through the channels one night I notice her. She is strumming a guitar and singing and the sound is wonderful....
Pros: A powerful and dynamic voice, multi-instrumentalist Cons: Probably wont get a lot of radio airplay
Nikka Costa is a virtual unknown that all who love that Lenny Kravitz/Tina Turner vybe should know. If the name doesn’t ring a bell, the Tommy Hilfigger commercial which her first single was featured might. ‘Like A Feather’ was a funky hip hop...
Pros: Fiery,soulful,sensuous,think Janis Joplin meets Chaka Khan Cons: Not a big fan of the title track.
Two years ago, I went around telling anyone that would listen about a soulful, fiery red-headed songbird who burst onto the scene with a distinctive voice and a very catchy single and a style all her own. I just knew she was the 'next big thing.'

Pros: Great songs, beautiful voice, and a body from hell Cons: Technically, we're not dating as of yet
She wore this electric blue shirt with a cut down the middle. It didn't show off her breasts, just the space in between. She danced with the microphone, not like it was another person, but an extension of her body. She's the goddaughter of Frank...
Pros: Absolutely fabulous blend of lyric, music and styles. Cons: You might have to read the lyrics to get them all...but it's worth it.
I first saw Nikka Costa on MTV after hearing rave reviews of "Like a Feather" from a friend of mine. The first time I heard the song, it didn't really jump out at me. However, I soon found myself walking around humming the tune and trying to find the...
Pros: Fresh sound,moves,strong vocals Cons: A couple of the tunes don't really fit
Watching late night talkshows can get very tough when it comes to the usual no talent musical guests.
Switching from Conan to Craig Kilborn one night, we were shocked! The tune began, I found myself instantly tapping my foot, and I turned away...
Pros: Innovative sound -- mixture of Funk, R&B, Pop and Rock and Roll. Wonderful lyrics. Cons: None
I cannot say enough about this wonderfully written, beautiful album. Nikka Costa is an absolute inspiration to musicians and writers throughout the world. With her soulful lyrics and incredibly innovative sound, this album is well worth the $15.00......
Pros: Cool voice, nice funky beats. Cons: Hard to understand her sometimes. Not enough funk.
I bought this CD shortly after seeing the Like A Feather video on MTV2. Knowing that I was taking a chance on whether I would like the rest of the songs on the CD or not I still bought it anyway. Well, I must say I was somewhat disappointed. The CD had...
