Exotica: World Music Divas is a compilation that spotlights female worldbeat vocalists, all of whom sing in different styles, from Celtic and African to Chinese and Spanish. It's an intriguing sampler that should appeal to new age listeners looking to broaden their horizons. Among the featured artists are Mammas, Vera Bila & Kale, Cesaria Evora, Aine Minogue, Shai No Shai, Nina Pastori, Khadja Nin and Ofra Haza. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
