Album Reviews
Keyshia Cole: ‘A Different Me’****
o Just as the title of this CD suggest, the listener is treated to very different Cole and it doesn’t disappoint. Cole’s “different me” is confident and sexy. If you’re at all familiar with Cole’s previous hits, ‘I just Want it to be Over,’ ‘Love,’ ‘Last Night,’ or ‘Let it Go,’ then you know she’s stuck primarily to R&B influences/leanings. Cole’s eclectic 3rd album unleashes an array of musical taste. Her most avid fans shouldn’t be disappointed. The R&B grooves which are responsible for her rise to stardom are well crafted on this 14 track disc, too. Yet, it is the standout pop production on songs such as ‘Make me Over, Please Don’t Stop,’ and ‘No Other,’ that showcase Cole’s strengths as a crossover artist. Download, ‘Erotic,’ ‘Thought You Should Know,’ and ‘Please Don’t Stop’

Lily Allen ‘It’s Not Me, it’s You’****
o This musical disc is a fun ride into a quirky mind that may leave you feeling a bit mischievous. On this partly humorous and cheeky 12 track CD, Allen manages to explore in a whispery and somewhat whimsical voice the common themes of love, life, and true happiness. From the first track, in which she details how everyone’s at it (doing coke) to the eleventh in which she questions GOD’s possible dissatisfaction with his so-called followers (people of faith). Allen manages to share deeply personal stories with her audience that reveals a young woman on the brink of self-discovery. Download, ‘Everyone’s At It,’ ‘The Fear,’ and ‘Back to the Start.’
