Shelton is delivering whip-smart soul with the energy of someone a third of her age. THE LONDON TIMES
Naomi Shelton is a power-house performer who sings with a passionate Baptist fervor. MOJO
Though the music is most unapologetically gospel, most of the lyrics would fall under what could be called message songs. That is, music containing uplifting spiritual messages, reminiscent of the more inspirational moments of The Staple Singers or Curtis Mayfield. However, the relationship between gospel and soul music does not need to be discussed again here. It is as plainly and naturally inherent in these grooves as it is in the singers every word and motion. There is no one alive today that has a voice or spirit more capable of lifting an audience than Naomi Shelton. Her grooves are pure Soul.
