Leave your thoughts about Am I Black Enough for You.
| Daily Mirror (UK)David EdwardsThis illuminating doc looks back on the Philly singer's life and times. It reveals a vast talent who lost his way through a combination of drugs and bad business decisions. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawPhiladelphia's soul legend Billy Paul takes centre stage in this intriguing documentary, which teases out the nuances of his complex and often painful career. |
| Film4Sam JordisonA touching story, relatively well told with the bonus of a fine backing track and eloquent interview subjects. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerDespite a few structural problems, Am I Black Enough For You is an engaging and ultimately uplifting film. |
