"The Daily News" Album Reviews

(3.5 stars out of 4 stars) On his second CD, this neo-soulster continues to evoke the spirit of cousin Marvin Gaye with insightful political and social commentary.

-- People Magazine
(3.5 stars out of 4 stars) Four years ago, Donnie's The Colored Section was the most provocative soul-fueled social commentary since the days when Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder and Donny Hathaway routinely offered biting analyses of current events. These days, the real daily news continues to give him plenty to talk about, which he does with wit and insight. It's nice to be reminded that there is more to R&B than preening and pickup lines.

-- USA Today
Soul music with substance.

-- Billboard
The Daily News is the most important pop album of any stripe for 2007.

-- Urban Network
This deep, gimmick-less soul touches on the strife affecting American inner city dwellers. Expertly delivered with a rich, gospel-influenced tone, administered by one of the most slept-on male soul singers.

-- BPM
Donnie's knack for fusing liberation theory with lyric and melody is second to none.

-- Upscale
...It's an album meant to push Donnie beyond the throwback-soul brigade, that crowd of new-wave/old-wave R&B singers who replicate the singing and production styles of folks like Donny Hathaway (to whom Donnie sounds eerily similar, in voice and songwriting perspective), Stevie, Curtis and Marvin..

-- L.A. Weekly Magazine
Listening to Donnie is listening to genius.

-- Soultracks.com
(4.5 stars out of 5 stars) Despite the lack of flag waving and ass kicking, this is as American -- and progressive -- as modern music gets.

-- All Music Guide
Donnie makes a triumphant return with "The Daily News" an album full of the socially conscious writing and rich vocals for which Donnie is known.

-- Planetsoul.com
A set that's arguably even better than his neo-classic Colored Section album.

-- Dustygroove.com
Donnie, I firmly believe God sits on a beach chair at the tip of your tongue. In your brain, He sat Ralph Ellison and Zora Neale Hurston on a hammock holding hands. In your heart, He placed the strength of the ocean water with the serenity of a sunset nursed into it. My hope is that I am lucky enough to take my very last breath on earth with your music in my ear. I mean that sincerely. "Colored Section" and "Daily News" have that much effect on my happiness.

-- DJ Bobbito Garcia
