 Flawless September 2, 2008
G. Dhalla
This is quite possibly the best album from Hathaway (counting even her collaboration with Sample). If you're in the mood for a Sade-type CD - consistent, smooth, nuanced and worthy of repeated listening, it doesn't get much better than this. My only reservation would be the CD artwork - it's as unexceptional as the album is sophisticated. This impeccable CD deserves a classier look.
Following Her Father's Legacy August 25, 2008
William m Coles (BALTIMORE, MARYLAND United States)
Lalah Hathaway like Donny Hathaway has such a spirit in his voice that it could bring you to tears and everytime I hear his daughter sing I am reminded of it. This project, every track is so moving, emotional and heartfelt that it leaves you wanting more. And the collabo with Rashaun Patterson is such a perfect fit with his vocal range that you just sing along with admiration, then replay it again. I can't say enough good things about this Self Portrait but that it looks and sounds like a classic Hathaway.

Most of us buy CD's hoping that the first song is an indication of what the CD will be like. Not the case with this one. I felt like I was a part of a bad day as I listened to this one.
Lalah is almost as good as her dad was! August 13, 2008
Monica R. Brown
I have followed her career since the beginning, seen her in concert, and loved her smooth sounds. This album is terrific from track 1 through track 12. I highly recommend it. And, I loved Donnie Hathaway!
