Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Somewhere between the nasty-girlisms of Millie Jackson and the morality tales of Shirley Brown--and come to think of it, the morality tales of Millie Jackson--rests Truth Hurts. After one album under the auspices of Dr. Dre, the singer returns with Raphael Saadiq's Pookie label. Even Saadiq's most straightforward projects come with offbeat moments: Right Now puts Truth's not-shy persona and her rich, overdubbed vocals alongside his insinuating steel guitar ("Catch 22") and Bollywood-tinged tracks that suggest that producers Alonzo Jackson and Brian "B. Dub" Wilson have been paying attention to Timbaland's recent work. At the heart of all this is one woman's, er, truth, regrets and all. Suited for both street cruising and bedroom listening, Ready Now promises more to come from this intriguing talent. --Rickey Wright

TRUTH HAS CAME WITH THE!

Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2004

Truth has made the ultimate comeback! When I saw that she came out with a new album, I knew I had to cop it.

01. Knock Knock (7/10) - A guitar and a smooth bass line followed by a groove beat. A laid back song.

02. Ready Now (10/10) - A somewhat rap beat followed by a light piano solo. My favorite song.

03. Ride (7/10) - This track sounds like Dr. Dre hooked it up, but unfortunatly she's not with him anymore. It's club club song.

04. Love U Better (8/10) - It's a "I can do it better than anyone else can" kind of song. I'm feelin' it.

05. Catch 22 (7/10) - I haven't grown to like this song yet, I never skip it. It's an emotional song. It's something to listen to.

06. Phone Sex (9/10) - An arabian tune with a sexy beat will bring folks to the dance floor. My favorite part is in the chorus: "Make sure you're cellular charged. I hope you have a towel in your car."

07. Whatchu Sayin' (10/10) - An Indian sound with the bell chimes makes this song flavorful and hot. I think that she could've gotten someone else besides "Loon" to rap but it's still a slick song.

08. Lifetime (Interlude) (10/10) - This interlude to me is funny because when she confronts the girl, she's like "May I speak to Nicole?" "Who is this?" "This is Truth. As in the." I love it.

09. Lifetime (8/10) - A laid back confronting the other person song. It took me forever to like this song.

10. Can't Be Mad (10/10) - Yet another favorite of mine. It's a up-beat song and I liked it the first time it entered me ears.

11. U (7/10) - The song that's 7:22 to end the album. I like to listen to the whole thing. It's a lovely slow ending album track.

Truth is back and she's READY NOW indeed!!

Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2004

2002 saw the rise and fall of Truth Hurts. She came out strong with her first single "Addicted" produced by Just Blaze, but fell off shortly afterwards due to a lawsuit for not crediting the people she sampled from. Not long after this, Truth Hurts departed ways with Dr. Dre and his Aftermath label and found her way on over to Pookie Entertainment, Raphael Saadiq's label.
And thus we have "Ready Now," her first album in two years. I first obtained this album through a friend over the Internet and I was thoroughly impressed with it. Saadiq knows how to write and produce well and each song compliments Truth's powerful vocals. The album is more like an EP than an actual LP, because there are only 11 tracks (including one interlude). But nevertheless the album is complete with nothin but mid-tempo grooves.
Truth is at her personal best on this album as she doesn't try being the R&B Lil Kim this time around. The album starts off with "Knock, Knock" and flows into her first single "Ready Now." My personal favorite song on this album, however, is "Catch 22." A powerful ballad about the downside of love. It's about loving someone more than they love you and trying to deal with it. Truth sounds emotional in this song and her delivery is strong. "Phone Sex" is after that and I don't think that needs any explanation. It's done tastefully well tho and doesn't sound forced.
Overall, Truth Hurts suprasses the "sophomore slump" and by hooking up with Raphael Saadiq has come back with a stronger and more soulful approach. Don't sleep on her peopple...this album!

I don't think the world was ready for the Truth!

Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2005

Truth Hurts came out a few years back with her blazing single "Addictive" which featured Rakim. Being that she was one of Dr. Dre's girls, she had a West Coast vibe. Nobody knew who she was or what she could accomplish. Many people loved the single but hated the album "Truthfully Speaking". Truth went back into the studio before completing her sophomore album "Ready Now" which is by far a great CD. Some songs stand out more than others, but after one day with this CD, you're hooked.

1. Knock Knock (8/10) - Nice song with a hot beat. You can't help but nod your head to the beat. Vocals are great. Rafael Saadiq helps on this track.

2. Ready Now (10/10) - The best song on the album. I believe it was a single though I never heard much about it. The beat is hot and different which makes me attracted to it. I love this song!

3. Ride (6/10) - Nice beat, nice lyrics, but it's missing something.

4. Love U Better (9/10) - A deep, sexual song. Truth is really X-Rated on much of her album. This song takes you into sexual extasy.

5. Catch 22 (5/10) - Alright song. Nothing special.

6. Phone Sex (8/10) - A very sexy song. The beat gets you all excited. Never heard a song about phone sex before.

7. Whatchu Sayin' (featuring Loon) (4/10) - Very weird. I don't like this song that much.

8. Lifetime (Interlude) - Just an interlude where she calls up some girl.

9. Lifetime (2/10) - Nothing special here. She gets a 2 for her vocals because she can sing!

10. Can't Be Mad (6/10) - Never really listen to it, but the beat is good and the vocals sound tight.

11. U (8/10) - Truth slows it down and stretches it out for this 7 minute song. Although it tends to repeat itself, it doesn't get old. It's nice.

If Truth had more promotion behind this album, it could have done better than it did.

Overall Grade: B-
