Critical response[edit]
Critical response to Fantasia was largely positive, as reviewers praised her vocals and charisma as well as the album's production; she drew multiple comparisons to Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner and Patti LaBelle.[4][5][6]Rolling Stone magazine said the album 'expands her range, adds some attitude and comes up with some genuine R&B gems.'[4]Allmusic found it 'a bolder, better album than Free Yourself,' adding that it 'breaks Barrino free of her American Idol persona, giving her a sound and style that she can build a career upon.'[6]PopMatters.com said that 'Fantasia is a solid second effort, made above average by that gem of a voice.'[7] Many critics also commented that the album's decidedly R&B nature (which translates to a reduced audience) was inevitable due to the lack of crossover success from Barrino's debut.[5][6] Thomas Inskeep with Stylus magazine praised Fantasia's 'rather astounding, multi-octave...voice, capable of the smoothest singing but also heavy on the grit,' while at the same time lamenting that she will never be 'America’s pop star...She’s too black.' He then declared, 'Fantasia wasn't meant to be America's pop star, anyway.'[5] Sal Cinquemani with Slant Magazine said that 'Fantasia's sophomore effort isn't exactly her Breakaway [Kelly Clarkson's hugely successful second album], but it's certainly a more unified artistic statement than 2004's Free Yourself.'[8]
On December 6, 2007, Fantasia garnered three 50th Annual Grammy Award nominations: Best Female R&B Vocal Performance for “When I See U”, Best Contemporary R&B Album for Fantasia, and Best R&B Song for 'When I See U'.
