''Kimbra's American fame may have come on the heels of someone else's single, but there's a vision here that's entirely her own," he said. "Sometimes she's self-consciously eccentric with her vocal tricks, but given her 1990s birthday, one can cut her slack for exploring how far she can push herself. The LA Times' August Brown wrote Kimbra had an "elastic, soulful voice". Introduced to the US as the sidekick of Australian singer Gotye, on his single Somebody that I used to know, Kimbra is now being touted as a star in her own right - her record boss referring to her as ''the next Prince''. The LA Times, along with the Washington Post, the Washington Times and Entertainment Weekly all sang the New Zealand songbird's praises as she sweeps through her first American tour. The album, Vows, was also sitting at #19 on Amazon's hot new releases list. Hamilton singer Kimbra's plans for US domination have started brilliantly, as she debuted at #3 on the American iTunes album chart and garnered glowing reviews. WORLD BEATER: Kimbra has what it takes to make it big.
