Let me put this out there first, the ‘Intro’ on Cheneta’s Debut is worth the price of the CD. It’s an acoustic reflective tune that would just get right through to you. 'Be Like You'  ‘I’m Yours’ rushes in with the rough beat RNB style artist such as Beyonce, Kierra KiKi Sheard and Tamia are known for. In fact on the ending Cheneta goes Motown with the adlibs just like Beyonce on her Austin Powers hit single ‘Work It Out’.

‘Liberty’ is that type of song you want to wake up to in the morning. It’s chorus is soft yet bold as Cheneta sings  ‘I’m walking in my liberty, no longer bound my insecurity. Forgetting those things which are behind. Future’s looking bright. I’m free’.  The free ranged adlib singing on ‘Get There’ is beautiful; it gives a very jazzy feel. ‘Disappear’ is a personal favorite as it uses strings and echoes in the classic Brandy style. Honestly you would love it. It’s a really beautiful piece. Other highlights include ‘We Worship You’ , ‘Sweet Obsession’ (a power-up beaty track which keeps me wondering why it shows up almost at the end of the CD) and ‘Hold On’. 

One thing about Cheneta Jones’ music is it subtle boldness. There’s the audacity that shines through her voice. For fans of Keri Hilson’s beaty ‘Pretty Girls Rock’, Beyonce’s Music and Brandy’s Soulful vibes looking for something more and deeper that honors God, Cheneta is your best bet and she’s sure going to be around for a long time, you can sure hear it in the sound.
