Montee stated as a producer I wanted to bring out the very best in Nell she has a very strong powerful voice and she is a Traditional Gospel Singer but with a little bluesey soulfulness along with some contempory flair so I wanted to find her very own voice since this is her first album. Nell sounds a lot like Shirley Caesar but I didn't want that and neither did Nell she wanted her own voice so that is what I tried to do, this album is a mixture of things, its Traditional because Nell has so many Traditional fans it is also Bluesey and Contempory design to fit Nell.
