Amazon.co.uk Review
It's been five years since Angie Stone's debut and her third album, Stone Love, is still taking the neo-soul approach with dabbles in hip-hop, funk and classic soul from throughout the years. The big song is "I Wanna Thank Ya", a funky, up-tempo hip-hop break that sees Stone dueting with Snoop Dogg--the production is a fresh take on the old skool sound while Stone's melody has a breezy disco-soul vibe. "Stay For a While" with Anthony Hamilton and "You Don't Love Me" are two highlights from the selection of silky smooth numbers where the warmth in Stone's voice is enhanced by the subtle arrangements. There are some poppier moments in "My Man" and "Lover's Ghetto" where the sound is influenced by the decadence of 80s soul, best summed up as a hybrid of Luther Vandross and Chaka Khan.
Stone Love is another great album for both soul lovers and people who like their pop with a bit of soul in it. There is very little filler and above all, with Angie Stone's experiments in all things urban, it never gets repetitive or boring. --Georgina Collins
CD Description
'Stone Love' is the third album from US neo-soul artist Angie Stone. Following on from where 2001's 'Mahogany Soul' left off, this is an album of smooth and sultry contemporary R'n'B numbers produced by Warryn 'Smiley' Campbell (Brandy, Deborah Cox, Dru Hill) and Stone herself. The single 'I Wanna Thank Ya', which features a guest appearance from Snoop Dogg, is also included.
Customer Reviews
Ms Stone does it again! Another great album
What can I say, this album is great all I can say if you get this album you will not be disapointed at all. That kind of love with Betty Wright is a lovely track that reminds you of the kind of songs that came out in the late 70's. Remy Red is a lovely mellow track and My Man feat. Floetry is a good head bopping track. If you are already a fan of Miss Angie Stone, you will LOVE this album. If you are not sure of Angie Stone get the albun anyway if your a fan of Neo soul. Once you have played it you will never stop playing it.
Does not fail to deliver
At first i was not sure what to make of this album because it is not as deep as Mahogany Soul but it has considerably grown on me after the third time playing it. To me this album is the perfect perfect accompaniment to Mahogany Soul. This album is lighter in feel and more up tempo than Mahogany Soul. This is *the* album to chill, mellow and relax to. My favourite songs on this album are Stone Love and Stay For A While is just beautiful this song is just the business! I am extremly pleased that i bought this enchanting album.
No Stone Unturned
Nobody would disagree that Angie Stone would make a great soul singer of the 1970s. Her musical style pays so much homage to that decade, that many of her songs, save the modern production, sound as if they could have been released in 1974 and not 2004. But while her music may be old school, it's definitely not old fashioned. Her third and most consistent album, "Stone Love," is overall more favorable than 2001's solid (if long-winded) "Mahogany Soul." There's nothing here that tops "Brother" or the knockout "Bottles and Cans," but at 55 minutes, it's lean and to the point with no throwaway songs. She ropes in Floetry for "My Man," teams up with fellow nu soul-er Anthony Hamilton on the standout "Stay For a While," emotes with conviction on "You Don't Love Me," and delivers a killer breakup jam "U-Haul," which, as the title implies, finds our heroine moving out of her man's crib and life. While Stone often wears her soul influences on her sleeve, there's enough good stuff on "Stone Love" to make it worth checking out.
