Celebrating its 20th anniversary the album includes the singles, Drawing Board, Ching Ching and Guess You Didnt Love Me featuring Mos Def. As well as the Mercury Music prize nomination, Terri Walker was also nominated for four MOBO awards and the album was critically acclaimed with the BBCs Denise Boyd proclaiming she has captured the heart of classic soul and blended it with a modern R&B flava. The result is original and uniquely her own.
One of the refreshing aspects of Untitled is that it is not full of collaborations instead at its heart is the immaculate voice of the artist with strong songs and positive, uplifting lyrics. Guess You Didnt Love Me, which does features Mos Def was a notable coup for a debut album.
