    The strength of Comfort Woman's first half quickly diminishes as the ideas run dry.

    It's all wonderfully sensual, only there's no passion or intensity. [Feb 2004, p.105]

    Unfortunately, most of the songs... are simply retreads of past works, with only the occasional fresh perception.

    You end up wishing Ndegeocello would grab someone and go get a room.

    Though Comfort Woman does not match the rebellion of past efforts, its overall joy is infectious. [Dec 2003, p.214]

    Her music is smooth and mellow. Perfect love music, as well as everyday music. I will definitely be looking for a next album
