| | Professional Reviews | | Vibe (4/99, p.183)
- "...Reel Tight have copped the tender-yet-tough 'tude that made lady-killers out of Jodeci..."The Source (3/99, p.218)
- "...While it is the task of a miracle musician to bring innovative ideas from the barbershops onto our CDs, it's the responsibility of talented groups like Reel Tight to break the mold of R&B remakes..." Rap Pages (7/99, pp.153-155)
- "...swings the pendulum between the light and airy R&B ballads of the '80s and the lyrically aggressive, sensually titillating R&B of the '90s....Reel Tight comes across as an ultraurban contemporary group poised to make some REAL noise." |
