From Publishers Weekly
Sure, maybe Jewel did it firstAa pop star committing her thoughts and poems to audiotape, thus introducing the medium to legions of demographically desirable young fans. But this original tape by "T-Boz" ("T" of the Grammy winning R&B/hip hop vocal group TLC) has the potential to break through to young African-American consumers, demonstrating anew the potential for musicians to embrace spoken audio as a natural, ready-and-waiting creative outlet. Watkins produced and recorded this tape on her own and handed it in as finished product. That air of assurance and artistic autonomy comes across strong in the poems and accompanying music. The Iowa-born singer addresses issues that affect many teens: racism, health, weight, workingAall components of self-image. Her message is one of self-reliance, born out in plainspoken rhyme and culminating in a musical number entitled "Tionne's Song." This makes for an appealing program that speaks directly to fans. Simultaneous release with the Harper Entertainment hardcover. (Nov.)

From School Library Journal
YA-"T-Boz," the T in TLC, a Grammy Award-winning girl singing group, has written a short book of poems and essays, and the lyrical text and photographs will hit home with a lot of teens. The author covers a whole range of topics such as love, relationships, heartbreak, body image, family, friends, and society. Fans get a rare glimpse of T-Boz's life not as a celebrity but as a caring, courageous, and persevering female who has made it to the top of her profession in spite of many obstacles placed in her path. This book is inspirational, soul-searching, and downright funny at times. It should fly right off the shelves and into the hands of many eager readers. Pair it with Tupac Amaru Shakur's The Rose That Grew from Concrete (MTV, 2000). Rarely will readers meet another celebrity so open, encouraging, and sensitive as Watkins. And, just maybe, teens will be inspired to put their own thoughts on paper.
