One-man show Dwele's debut, Subject, comes correct with neo-soul staples in place. That is to say, there are enough acoustic guitars, stacked harmony vocals, mid-tempo grooves, and sound effects of scratchy vinyl to power an old-school symposium. What the Detroit-bred associate of backpack-rappers Slum Village lacks in depth, he makes up for in sheer summer-ready listenability. Dwele's genre could be called neo-neo-soul; he seems to owe as much to the foundations laid down by D'Angelo as to obvious idol Stevie Wonder. While lacking the idiosyncrasies of those artists, Dwele manages to slide out of the speakers with enough skills to convince a casual listener to let the languid mood take over. Subject's title track is its most fully imagined; the needle-on-record gambit that obscures its likable chorus could actually be heard as a conceptual gambit rather than a mere irritation. Elsewhere, Dwele piles on the quiet-storm stuff so masterfully that he sows confusion, while at least seemingly hoping to settle down with one conquest. Vision is hardly up to talent here, but for now, Dwele gets a pass on winning sonics alone. --Rickey Wright

 the subject May 28, 2008
the debut from Dwele starts off on a pretty good note. By track 3 though is where it really begins to kick in and things are taken up a notch.
Subject had to be one of the cds in 2003 for folks to watch and listen for. It covers various topics in relationships and love and is done in a way. You can't help but fall for. It gets a bit rocky towars the end track 13 (which is pretty much an interlude). But concludes nicely and leaves things open for what will probably be an even better sophomore effort.

This Cd was just okay with me. Not my style exactly. You may enjoy it

This CD is for mature taste. If you are a fan of the immature junk on the radio today, this is not for you. This is an instance classic and will be in my rotation indefinately.

I got this cd after Some Kinda and it is just poor. This album can do with remixing, reproduction on his part, to make it good, as he has grown musically. This one is just weak but, their are one or two good traks
