Amazon.com Ledisi, whose name does not rhyme with "release me" (it's LED-duh-see), nevertheless sounds like she's hit upon freedom and sweet salvation on Lost And Found, her third CD and the first on a major label (Verve). And it's not just a matter of the third time being the charm: Though she's long been the object of love from critics--2002's jazz-themed Feeling Orange But Sometimes Blue earned props for its depth and nuance, and her contribution to 2004's Luther Vandross tribute, Forever, For Always, For Luther, also prompted breathlessness--her focus this time out is less on music that'll win her respect and more on the kind that'll render her a mainstream R&B favorite. Which is to say it's a much different and more accessible record than its predecessors, the kind that comes first from the heart, then from the head. First single "Alright" grooves insistently and with deep reserves of attitude; "I Tried"--a tell-all about a doomed relationship--packs a rhythmic wallop as well as an excellent set of lyrics; and "Upside Down" gets fuel from fierce, infectious guitar funk. Those are just a sampling of what makes this an instantly diggable (and, at 16 tracks, likably long) set. Straight up is sometimes a hard road for artists who value more than their sales rank or chart position to follow, but for Ledisi it's the way to go--what turns up in this particular Lost And Found is her groove; her ticket to stardom is likely in there with it. --Tammy La Gorce
Album Description Named by Billboard Magazine as one of the Top 10 Faces to Watch in 2007, the acclaimed Bay Area-based vocalist and songwriter makes her major label debut on Verve Forecast with a show-stopping blend of soul, funk, gospel, jazz and R&B on Lost and Found.

Glad I bought it August 15, 2008 I like the beat to both the intro & outro, they frame a pretty good CD. Track III "You & ME" has real soulful feel as well as beats. My favorite song is Track VI "Think of You". A real upbeat song kind of reminiscent of Jaguar Wright. The XI "I tried" is another upbeat song that can be considered a good dance song. I think the fifthteenth song "Someday" is the most heartfelt song of the whole CD. She mentions her family in a very loving way. Songs IV, "Best Friend", V "Alright", VIIII, "Upside" Down", are decent cuts as well. I know I shouldn't but I must compare her sound to Angie Stone with whom I have a high opinion of.
This is worth buying August 12, 2008 Ledisi takes you on a journey of emotions with this CD. I guarantee that anyone who is into NeoSoul will not be disappointed and for the newcomers this is a refreshing change from the same old music you hear on the popular radio stations. Give her a try and if you can check her out live like I did this summer you will instantly become a fan.
pretty good July 30, 2008 i wasn't crazy about this one when i bought it, so like some others it sat on the shelf. got up to clean one day and popped in and couldn't believe that i slept on this cd. great flow, great sound and great voice. buy it!
Hot, hot, hot!!!! July 22, 2008 Ledisi has me in her clutches and won't let go. This CD is definitely more "main stream" in the sound; she didn't quite let it go, but I like that she can let go and draws you in with such anticipation. I can't wait for her next release. Ledisi is a true artist; writes, produces, and delivers her music is the most explosive package. In my eyes, "Lost and Found" can't hold a candle to "Soulsinger", but she's so on fire she could sing the yellow pages, and I'd buy 2 copies! Love her always!!!
GET THIS ALBUM July 20, 2008 THIS IS THE BEST ALBUM EVER NOTHING BAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS ONE RIGHT HERE BUT I DO HAVE ONE FAVORITE SONG I HAVE TO HEAR EVERYDAY ITS [SOMEDAY] I LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT
