Music Review: Basiclly What She Wants to Do is Dance...
Rating: 3 Stars
Vanessa Hudgens has been very famous ever since her lead role in Disney Channel's most popular TV movie, 'High School Musical'. Whether its her relationship with Zac, her music career, or her nude photo controversy, it seemed at one point she couldn't stay out of the tabloids. Her debut album "V" was a very good pop album with just a few fillers. Easily four stars. After hearing "Sneakernight", I wondered how this album would turn out. "Sneakernight" was an average three star song. It was catchy, had a nice beat, but it was very repetitive lyrically. After hearing this album, it did not have many songs like that. Unfortunately, these songs were either hit or miss, with only a few in between great and bad.
Many of these songs sound like she's trying to rip of Hilary Duff's most recent album Dignity, where they both say goodbye to innocent bubblegum pop and try pop music with a very '80s dance music feel to them. However, of these two CD's, it seems Hilary's is much better lyrically and a lot of times her beats are better also.
The CD starts off with "Last Night". Lyrically, this track is good. Not great, but good. However the beat to this song is very odd sounding and the words aren't very well in sync with the music, making it one of my least favorites on the CD. The CD picks up on the next song, which is the title track. This just happens to be the best song on the disc. It has a great beat, catchy lyrics, and nothing too repetitive at that! I find myself humming or even singing that song to myself on occasion. When you think the disc might not be a complete waste of money, things get just plain boring as you find yourself skipping "First Bad Habit" after the first listen.
Next up is "Hook It Up" , which is weird. It starts out with a nice beat. But it's down hill from there. "Hook It Up" sounds like it's written by a five year old. (You Got the money money/She's got the hottie body/We wanna party party/hook it on up!), and when she sings the chorus, she speaks it, almost like she's trying to rap. Plus, if you were offended by her saying the word 'hell' in the song "Let Go" from her first album, it says it in this song to, although she is not the one who says it. "Don't Ask Why" is a nice ballad after all those bad to mediocre pop/dance songs (minus the song "Identified" which is wonderful.) I would consider it another one of my favorites.
"Don't Ask Why" is followed by the single "Sneakernight", the amazing "Amazed" where she channels her bubblegum pop and a little hip hop. Lil Mama helps make this one of the best tracks on the disc, only behind "Identified". "Don't Leave" is a forgettable ballad. "Paper Cut" is a much better ballad. Then "Party on the Moon" gives us a great beat, but lyrics that many might find childish and stupid. (Just read the title.)
"Did It Ever Cross Your Mind" is another one that I tend to skip.
The CD ends with "Gone With the Wind", which is about growing up and not being afraid to speak her mind and do what SHE wants to do. This is the best ballad, and third best track on the album. When it's over, you find yourself trying to decide if it was worth it. You might find yourself add a few songs to your iPod and then putting the CD where you might not pick it up for a couple of months/years. Either way, I suggest buying "Identified", "Don't Ask Why", "Amazed", "Sneakernight", and "Gone With the Wind" on iTunes and not waste money on the whole CD.
