I Owe You is the debut studio album by American gospel singer Kierra "Kiki" Sheard . It was released by EMI Gospel on September 7, 2004 in the United States. Sheard worked with a variety of producers on the album, including Warryn Campbell , Rodney Jerkins , PAJAM , and Tonéx . I Owe You debuted atop the US Billboard Top Gospel Albums and the Heatseekers Albums . It also reached number four on the Top Christian Albums and number 29 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums .[2]
Critical reception [ edit ] Allmusic editor Andree Farias found that I Owe You "can be so easily compartmentalized is not necessarily a sign of versatility, but an indicator that KiKi is merely following the lead of others. This is not a big deal in the case of debut albums, but the see-if-it-sticks mentality is ultimately too jarring to take in all at once. It's nice of Sheard to let herself be all things to all people, but here's hoping the follow-up to I Owe You is truly more her, not who her handlers want her to be."[1]
Accolades [ edit ] I Owe You was nominated for three Stellar Awards , including Contemporary Female Vocalist of the Year, Urban Song of the Year, and Contemporary CD of the Year. Sheard was also nominated for multiple Soul Train Music Awards , an NAACP Image Award , and multiple Dove Awards .[5]
