 | | Starting with the misleading, unaffecting intro, Nomi quickly slides into “Streets of Brooklyn,” a catchy, bold calling card, incorporating string drenched backing and sensuous, breathy vocals to drag the listener into the melodramatic world she hangs the album on. |
 | | Unfortunately, due to the underground, independent nature of Nomi’s work, these types of songs are destined to be covered by higher profile, far less interesting artists, ie, Pussycat Dolls’ bland, lifeless cover of Tori Alamaze’s far superior “Don’t Cha?” And there, unfortunately, lies the downfall of the independent artist; unfettered vision with no exposure. |
 | | Nomi infuses her street poetics with sermons on the pursuit and inherent pain of love and unfettered lust. |
