3 stars

Canadian R&B vocalist bridges the old with the new.

Jazzy instrumentals and groovy rhythms combined with Melanie Fiona’s deep throaty vocals result in an album that just makes you want to get up and rumba. This debut album, features the single Give It To Me Right, ranked 39th on Billboard’s Canadian Hot 100 and 22nd on Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay. With lyrics like, “When I want it / You gotta be ready / When I get it / I better be satisfied,” Fiona portrays her strong personality to get what she wants. The combination of new school hip-hop and R&B with an old-school flare is fresh, ensuring this songstress will continue to hit the charts with a Bang Bang!

Ruthdol’s fave track: Bang Bang
