Review

Rolling Stone (5/10/01, p.88) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...WHips up funk positivity and indulges the singer in her impersonation of Angry Soul Woman....there isn't a thing wrong with EVERYTHING, except perhaps its vacuum-sealed perfection."
Entertainment Weekly (5/25/01, p.80) - "...An audacious, fresh-as-a-daisy debut....crossbreeding songcraft with ass-thump funk....intoxicating..." - Rating: A-
Q (Summer/01, p.97) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Moody soul-funk...Like a softer Anastacia, with the emotional cache and record collection of Macy Gray, it's the tender slow rollers that really clinch this supreme collection..."

Japanese version features a bonus track.

She may be the offspring of famed Sinatra arranger Don Costa, but Nikka Costa's muse lies in a soulful fusion of rock, electronica and hip-hop. Costa ignited a buzz via the lo-fi, beat-heavy "Like A Feather" (included here as the opening track) that was used in a Tommy Hilfiger ad in Summer 2000. Released on D'Angelo's label Cheeba Sound, Costa's debut is far from empty industry hype, as she shifts gears between the percolating Sly-flavored funk of the title track to giving Macy Gray a run for her money on the R&B ballad "Just Because."

Costa's eclectic tastes also pop up via samples of The Beastie Boys (the psychedelic trip-hop of "So Have I For You"), Xavier Cugat (a drum-and-bass flavored "Tug Of War"), and Cannonball Adderley (the string-laden soul tune "Corner Of My Mind"). A delightful grab-bag of stylistic nuances, EVERYBODY GOT THEIR SOMETHING is a wonderfully organic debut that promises to find its way onto more than a few Best Of 2001 lists.
