Editorial Review:
Beyoncé, look out: Le Toya's in the house. This debut disc by the former Destiny's Child member could make any firmly established diva crazy with envy. Slicing the set up between traditional R&B and hip-hop-lite, the once stuck-in-the-shadows belle of Houston trades on her silky vocals and a knack for musical playfulness; hear it not only on "Torn," the radio hit that propelled this project, but also on the tracks you'd expect least. "Hey Fella," with fellow Houstonian Slim Thugg, is a dirty-flirty come on that'll nudge listeners into winking at strangers, and "Tear Da Club Up" and "Gangsta Grillz" rip into the atmosphere, determined to get Texas booties--booties from anywhere at all, really--shaking. On those two tracks and elsewhere, Le Toya enlists her street smart homeboys--Bun B, Jazze Pha, and Mike Jones--to set the appropriate vibe. But overall, this disc feels like a free-spirited invitation to check out her many musical layers. Detractors may fault Le Toya for latching on to better-known bangers and satisfaction-guaranteed production (hello, Jermaine Dupri!), but a close listen and a look at the credits crushes doubts about her credibility. Destiny may have left Le Toya behind, but the fellas from back home scooped her up; her voice and their presence will vault her to the top. --Tammy La Gorce
LeToya Reviews:
Music sometimes seemed bigger than the singer 
2009-08-12 - I love her voice but there were times on some songs that the music just seemed to overpower her voice. It could have been as if she was competing with the music. However, overall the CD was pretty good.
Love this Chick! 
2008-11-03 - Love this Chick And this Project, Ive Had the pleasure Of meeting her on two occasions and she is very nice, Cant wait For her new Project 2009
Good 
2007-12-29 - This is a good album of danceable tracks from the "H-Town". LeToya has a sweet high pitched voice that sounds great over the heavy club beats. It is a bit ghetto but not in a bad way. She has a lot of rappers as guest stars so if you don't like that, beware. Overall, it is a solid buy if you like this type of music. It is not grammy material, but who cares.
LeToya solo
2007-11-15 - This is a great CD! She has a very lovely and passionate voice. She does not overstrain her voice and sing too loud. I don't know why some R and B artist think that their voice is not good if they are not super loud and over straining to the point where their voice cracks. Just because something is loud does not mean it sounds good. Like I said again she sings great none of that over the top drama. Her voice is soothing and moving. Real talent does not need gimmicks. She sings with soul and her CD has a good mix of upbeat dance music and ballads to keep everyone happy, no profanity, up to date, and classic R and B. She shows that women of faith can have fun and still be classy!
good album altogether
2007-10-15 - Hey Fella - nice beat, like the thuggish feel thanks to slim
Torn - nice ballad
Tear Da Club Up (H-Town Version) - does what it says
are great highlights off the album.
I like her voice as its not as annoying as beyonce's!!!
