About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

British soulstress Des'ree caused little more than a ripple with her 1992 debut, Mind Adventures, but caught fire with her sophomore effort, I Ain't Movin', and the smash single "You Gotta Be." The uplifting song was a U.S. Top Five hit and best exemplified Des'ree's smooth blend of pop/R&B music and power-of-positive thinking lyrical style. Nothing else on I Ain't Movin' manages to endear itself quite as much, but it's hardly a washout. Des'ree possesses a pleasing vocal delivery and it serves her well on songs like the slinky, mid-tempo "Feel So High," the breezy "Little Child," the hypnotic groove of "Trip on Love," and the confessional title cut. Some of the lyrics are a bit half-baked and fail to achieve much depth and the production is a bit slick at times, but not enough to mar an otherwise satisfying release. Tom Demalon, All Music Guide

One of the best albums of the 1990'sby JohnQ

August 03, 2009: Sure there is only one hit on this album (You Gotta Be) but what a great hit! The feel of this album is complete and wonderful as she takes the theme introduced with "You Gotta Be" into and throughout the entire album. This album is a treasure, a delight, and essential to any decent CD collection. The little booklet includes all the Lyrics and that is always appreciated. As she writes in the book: "One body - Respect it, One Mind - Feed it, One Life - Enjoy it." My life is that little bit more enjoyable for having this great album.
