Stacy is my "Britney".

"I was about 14 when this album came out and I remember wanting to be a music star like her. I am not comparing Stacy to Britney in the vain of the way she carries herself. Unfortunately, Britney is not doing very well in that department. Rather, what I mean is when I was young, she was to me what Britney was to her young following back in 1999.



As far as the music goes, Lattisaw's music was fun dance pop and R&B much like Britney's was on her first three cds. Lattisaw's music would take on more edge later on in her Motown years (Nail it to the Wall). Dynamite was Lattisaw's first hit, an uptempo and funk-R&B dance number. Had it been around today, it would surely have been remixed despite it's already being dancable. Clocking in just past six minutes, this song had all the makings for a party jam. My favorite song, however is the title song "Let Me Be You Angel" which still makes it on the old-school sets. Trully an enduring love ballad for all time.



I don't want to sound like all the other bozos out there decrying "music of today". Music of today has great things to offer, but unfortunately with all the sexual and violent themes, I do wish more music like this was making it on the charts. Unfortunately, while it is out there (Mandy Moore, Debroah Gibson, Stacie Orrico) it is not making the charts and radio like it used to."
