The midtempo jam Before You Were My Man is pretty dramatic with it’s lyrical concept, but as far as its production goes, I was pretty much on the fence and didn’t quite get the climax I was looking for. I thought whilst the beat is cool, I heard it all before. On top of that, it lacked originality with its identical musical arrangement to that of N-Sync‘s ‘Gone’.Īs for Notice, it’s one of the stand-out tracks with it’s catchy-drum sequence and light-hearted concept whereas Framed Out is more hard-hitting and stylish with its emphasis of their love for rocking fresh and fly gear: “Gucci, Cartier, Marc Jacobs, Prada”, “My Louis Vuitton bag” and “My cold shades” making it an eligible cut for Sex In The City. It didn’t I’m afraid.Whilst Amnesia is a beautiful guitar-laid ballad, it didn’t blow me away despite the beautiful harmonizing and pretty vocal delivery. I was also left wondering if that heart-stopping moment would come to levitate me on a musical level. It still fails to exhibit the vocal talent that they exude, but it’s still a radio friendly song. I Aint Trippin’ is slightly more grinding with it’s catchy hook and solid production. If anything, it’s probably one of the most amateurish-sounding songs on the album.
The song concept was lame, and it failed to exhibit any type of skillful vocal prowess that the sisters are capable of.
When I heard lead single ‘Killa’ for the first time, I thought the synthy up-tempo cut was very underwhelming. The set boasts production from Bryan-Michael Cox, Don Vito, Eric Hudson, Phalon Alexander, Ron “Neff U” Feemster, Rickie Fambro and Tricky Stewart. This week, Atlanta-based girl group Cherish released their sophomore album The Truth.
I said I was going to post my album review for this CD by the end of the week, and I meant it, so here it is folks.
