my new album "meanwhile..." was also recently reviewed by
UK based magazine, Street Voice:
LATTE D. KYD - meanwhile… 9/10
In a discussion at work today some one commented that white people can't rap very well when we were talking about artists and music. I let that person have a listen to this album and he was taken aback by what he heard then I showed him a photo of Latte he was lost for words. What Latte D. Kyd does so well is blending in rap with pop, rock and soul influences giving her sound a very street feel to it. Some would call it 'Urban' but 'Street' sounds more real which this album is! There's just no messing around here and that what makes this the album it is. Latte just gives you her songs straight without all that studio gimmickry that so many artists tend to use these days. Latte doesn't have to do that. She lets her voice and music do the talking for her and that's what makes her so cool! For me tracks like 'Don't You Dare', 'Lose Your Soul', 'Sixth Cents' and 'Kiss' are my favourite numbers on here but the others aren't far behind. In fact it's fair to say that there's no weak numbers on this release at all. 'Meanwhile…' also comes well packaged and produced given you a brilliant debut album to check out.
Latte D. Kyd rocks. Not only is she beautiful but also has all the right qualities to reach the very top in the music business. http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=22963792&blogId=494198288
