Free Music Notes for Jordin Sparks
Free Music Review: Jordin doesn't talk about the booty
Hit: 5 Stars
I have so shocked by this album and I found it to be one that is very refreshing. In a world where most of the music out there is talking about sex Jordin didn't go there. The songs are sweet and fit her image. I would recommend this album to anyone that wants an album that they can listen themselves and also with their own kids.
My favorite track is entitled: Shy boy. She talks about wanting a boy that is shy and not someone that is putting on a front. It is songs like this that will make her an eventual success.
Free Music Review: Good
Hit: 5 Stars
I really enjoyed many of the songs... as they seemed original and somewhat reminiscent of the 80s techno pop. Free Music Review: Very catchy...
Hit: 5 Stars
When I heard Jordin's CD for the first time, I thought it sounded "just ok." Then I listened to it for a second time and now I'm hooked. I love it! I think it's very "age appropriate" for her and she has a great voice. I'm glad I didn't listen to other reviews or comments regarding her cd.Free Music Review: Not a true picture of Jordin's talent and vocal ability.
Hit: 3 Stars
I think that they are trying to keep Jordin in the younger market. This CD did apoor job of displaying her real talent. I've heard her sing and she can do so much better. Keep in mind, I believe it is the somgs they chose that really did her in. The CD is not all bad, but very definitely directed toward a younger audience. She has alot more power in her than they let her use in these songs. I'm anxious to see her next release to see if they really let her sing. BTW, my 17 year likes this CD alot, even though she knows Jordin can sing even better.Free Music Review: Sparks debut is a little flicker and a little fizzle
Hit: 3 Stars
The latest winner of the mega-hit television series "American Idol" released her first album just before the 2007 holiday rush. For some, it will be this effort will be like an extra little present. For others, it might seem a little more like a lump of coal.
All in all, Jordan Sparks self-titled debut is pretty average or possibly a slight bit better. Her sound seems to be a minor throw back to a few years prior with an attempt to intermix the sounds of pop and light rhythm and blues. For the most part, her youth (she's still a teenager) is evident but that's not necessarily a bad thing.
Probably the two most notable works on the album are the first two singles.
Millions heard Sparks' vocal range displayed as she sang out "This is my now" on the "American Idol" finale. This well written song seems to fit her nearly perfectly and quite fittingly is the final track And, the single "Tattoo" featuring a soft, traditional beat and those same solid vocals is quite good as well.
On the other hand, a few examples of tracks that lack any real luster would have to be "Shy boy" and "Young and in love". The first sounds somewhat mechanical and unoriginal, while the second seems to have a week beat and sounds overproduced.
Virtually all the rest of the tracks on this album featured both good and bad elements. They range from energetic, and happy ("Now you tell me" and "Next to you") to subtle and meaningful ("See my side" and "God loves ugly"). Overall, it's not a bad effort for rookie in the music business.
I give it a rating of 3.5 out of 5 or a "B" on the musical grading scale.
