Lakisha Jones
So Glad I’m Me
Elite Music
Lakisha Jones is a native of Flint, Mich., who placed fourth on a recent season of “American Idol.” While her vocals are strong, after only a few songs, Jones’ album uniformly sounds like smartly rendered, accessible R&B that fits neatly into the background. You have to wish that Jones had been more willing to push the musical boundaries. –forrest green III
