Об альбоме (Andy Kellman):
India.Arie назвала творческое давление одним из факторов разрыва между Testimony: Vol. 1, Life & Relationship, её последним альбомом на Motown, и Testimony: Vol. 2, Love & Politics, её дебютным альбомом на Universal Republic. Возможно, Motown не захотели поддаться инстинктам артистки с тремя альбомами подряд, попавшими в десятку лучших, и двумя премиями «Грэмми» (плюс 14 дополнительных номинаций). Testimony: Vol. 2, пожалуй, лишь умеренное развитие Testimony: Vol. 1 и не звучат как серьёзный поворот в сторону от прошлого Ари. Однако разнообразие приглашённых музыкантов естественным образом подчёркивает и способствует её самому эклектичному и сложно поддающемуся классификации альбому на сегодняшний день; помимо Musiq (Soulchild) и MC Lyte, в записи приняли участие регги-исполнитель Gramps Morgan, турецкая звезда Sezen Aksu и африканский вокалист Dobet Gnahore (участвовавший в кавере на песню Sade «Pearls»). Несмотря на нестандартные идеи и неожиданных гостей, Ари могла бы исполнить каждую из этих песен вживую, используя только гитару, не рискуя обделить слушателей. Учитывая новые обстоятельства, неудивительно, что её взгляд на мир стал шире, а взгляд – мудрее и открытее, чем раньше. Наиболее ярким примером служит «Ghetto» – песня, которая, кажется, вдохновлена «The World Is a Ghetto» группы War, развивая идею о людях по всему миру, столкнувшихся с одинаковым бедственным положением, – и медленный, блюзовый стэмп «Better Way», определённо ориентированной на США (с участием Кеба Мо на гитаре). Тон песен об отношениях более оптимистичный, а местами даже беззаботный, по сравнению с песнями альбома Testimony: Vol. 1, что добавляет приятный контраст более серьёзному материалу. Если её бывший лейбл и мог бы в чём-то её обвинить, так это в отсутствии громкого сингла (у неё нет ни одного хита, попавшего в топ-40), и это вряд ли изменится в ближайшее время. Её фан-база, достаточно большая, чтобы обеспечить альбому Arie статус «золотого», с радостью предпочтёт четвёртый стабильный и честный альбом громкому поп-хиту.
