“Myers clearly enjoys keeping the listener guessing. And with Vertigo, she’s also likely to leave them intrigued and hungry for more.”
– VIBE |
“Everyone is convinced that Billie Myers is going to be very big indeed, and her debut album makes all the right noises…”
– The Times of London |
“From her perspective, sitting high up on the diva scale following her smash hit “Kiss the Rain”, Vertigo, is probably an appropriate title for her second album. Full of fun, hooky, and provocative tracks, Billie Myers is surely approaching the peak of her career on her latest release.”
– NEXT Magazine |
“She has a developed an ear for consistently potent, often provocative lyrics. It’s apparent she’s weighed every word carefully and the lyrics fuel her performances.”
– VIBE |
“In fact, the album is almost overwhelming as it reels off nearly an hour's worth of complex, filler-free tracks…Myers has a powerful, no-nonsense presence akin to that of Christie Hynde, Alannah Myles and Johnette Napolitano.”
– Scripps Howard News Service |
“Her new album's marvelous ''Am I Here Yet?'' might just reprise Myers' earlier success. But there's much more to fall in love with on ''Vertigo.'' Musically, the disc is a lot more diverse than the debut, with infusions of '60s rock, the Beatles and soul, while lyrically, Myers addresses unrequited love, racism and sexism, among other topics.
– The Daily News of Los Angeles |
“Billie Myers, "Am I Here Yet (Return To Sender)" (Universal single). It's been a couple years since Myers invaded clubland with the now-classic "Kiss The Rain," which was wickedly re-tweaked by Thunderpuss 2000. Now, armed with a fab new album, "Vertigo," and this catchy single-with a handful of powerful mixes by Junior Vasquez-Myers is poised to, once again, wreak havoc on dance floors…”
– Billboard |
“This is an effort that Myers can take great pride in and one that radio would do well to let listeners have the final say.”
– Billboard |
“Myers delivers a fearless set that intertwines deft pop hooks, wickedly honest lyrics, and vibrant rhythms.”
– HX Magazine |
“One of the most gifted of this year's new pop crop delivers the
goods with her third single, following "Kiss The Rain" and "Tell
Me." This leisurely ballad shows the should-be star in a moment of
reflection, wrapping a vocal that is refreshingly raw and emotional
around a lyric about her will to start a doomed relationship all over again…On whole, this is the kind of single that should not be passed over just because it sounds different from typical fare. Quite the contrary.
– Billboard |
“Her album, Growing, Pains (Universal), is at least as reminiscent of Cher and Tina Turner's prefab stadium pop as it is of Alanis Morissette and Joan Armatrading's more personal gushings…”
– The Independent |
"Tell Me," Billie Myers (Universal Records). Sexy and raucous, this pop celebration of endless possibilities in passion makes it clear that Myers has much more than a kiss of rain in mind for her rapidly expanding fan base.”
– Billboard |
“Billie Myers has the voice of an angel. Billie Myers has a developed consciousness. Billie Myers’ lyrics are thought provoking. Billie Myers is a star.”
– Miami Go |
“This woman will be a huge star. Sexy, sassy and a belter like the music industry hasn’t seen in eons, Londoner Myers is a raw, free spirit to be admired.”
– Richmond Times Dispatch |
