Review

Rolling Stone (8/30/01, p.125) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...This sounds more like peak '70s Pretenders than anyone in black music history....HOW DO I does that rare thing: It provides an original direction..."
Q (May 2002, p.119) - 3 out of 5 stars - "...Res offers a hotchpotch of musical styles....one minute swooping soulfully, the next a husky mutter..."
NME (Magazine) (4/6/02, p.34) - 7 out of 10 - "...[Res] can probably only be understood...in relevance to a life lived as a classically trained prodigy who gets as much from '70s soul as Pearl Jam..."

Res is ostensibly a contemporary R&B singer, but in actuality that's about as informative (and accurate) as calling Radiohead a modern rock band. She shares some of the roots-conscious sensibility of history-respecting artists like Maxwell and Musiq Soulchild, but she ranges far beyond merely updating '70s soul grooves with hip-hop production tricks. Her lyrics are thoughtful and carefully constructed (more than one can say for many of her less creative contemporaries), and her musical palette is wide-ranging. HOW I DO's eclectic melding of styles owes as much to pop and rock as it does to R&B, ultimately creating a fresh new musical paradigm. The resultant crossover appeal should (if there's any justice) make Res appealing to the pop/rock crowd as well as to those who paper their walls with life-size photos of Macy Gray and Sunshine Anderson.
