While celebrities such as Sevyn Streeter, Tameka "Tiny" Harris, KANDI's cast mates and Tamar Braxton are already taking to twitter to compliment Kandi on the song, her fans are also raving about the single with one fan stating via a comment on iTunes that the song is "beautiful, everyone can relate to this song. It's Awesome." The DVD/CD is due out in April on Kandi Koated Entertainment.

"LET THEM LOVE," has also has been crowned as "a new gay anthem" by ProjectQ Atlanta. Kandi ecstatic about the endorsement states, "Love should have no boundaries. Heterosexual, homosexual, couples of different races, we all want the freedom to love."

Other tracks on A Mother's Love soundtrack include Q Parker's emotional "Shouldn't Have A Say," which many are calling Kandi's fiance' Todd Tucker's True Life inspired track, the mother's heartfelt anthem and title track, "A Mother's Love," by Shirley Murdock, and even RHOA's Porsha Williams has a track with the spicy "Fool For Love." Others who appear on the soundtrack include: Eddie Levert, D. Woods formerly of Danity Kane, Chaundra Currrelly, and more.

KANDI who wrote and co-produced all of the material from the disc says, "I think everyone will be able to relate to this soundtrack and will find a song that speaks to them."

In support of the release KANDI will appear on both Bethenny and BET "106 & Park," tomorrow, January 22nd (Check Your Local Listings) and will stop by Hot 97 to discuss her ventures on the morning show this Friday, January 24th.

In addition, KANDI has received rave reviews from her performance on off-Broadways Newsical The Musical. Huffington Post raved:

"Sure, she can sing -- Burruss was a member of the girl group Xscape and a Grammy winning songwriter, but it's never clear on her show just how funny she can be. First up, Ms. Burruss kindly lambasts some of her Housewives of Atlanta costars, then sings about how her work rarely takes her out of Atlanta and that while New York can be disgusting ("I just saw a pigeon eat a rat" she hilariously sings) she has really taken to the city. But, the most hilarious moment of the evening comes when she sings a parody song about her sex toy line Bedroom Kandi. Buruss' finesse and sharp comic timing fit like a glove onstage with regular cast members Susie Mosher, Christine Pedi, Dylan Thompson and Michael West."

2014 is already off to a great start for Kandi.
