Nicole C Mullen - A Dream to Believe In - Volume 2

“Nicole C. Mullen has an impressive set of pipes and is equally skilled at delivering poignant ballads, soul-drenched grooves and soaring worship anthems. She does all that on this collection. “Like a Lady” boasts a cool vibe while instructing young men on how to treat a woman. “Brainwash” is a funky pop number that should be a multiformat hit, while “Forever You Reign” is a vibrant worship song. “Work With Me (Dance)” is a buoyant dance tune that makes it impossible to sit still, while “Blessed and Broken” is a gorgeous ballad that showcases every nuance of Mullen’s amazing voice. Throughout, Mullen refuses to have her tremendous gifts confined to any one musical box. —Deborah Evans Price”
