Music reviews of Instigator
Music Review: I like it like this...
Rating: 4 Stars
I've been anxiously awaiting a sophomore album from this girl for what feels like forever. You wouldn't think I'd be so anxious over yet another pop princess to present us with more of her recycled top 40 material, but that's where Kaci Brown stands out for me. First of all, she isn't a pop princess for the mere fact that hardly anyone really knows who she is. Second, while some of her material (namely the first single `Unbelievable') does sound like a generic pop offering, this girl brings so much more to the table. With island and folk influences that permeate beautiful songs like `Cadillac Hotel' and `You Fool', Brown has a LOT going for her and I personally cannot wait to see what else to give us.
Reportedly she's working on her sophomore album. Please don't make me wait too much longer.
I'll get the bad out of the way first. I'll say this, not a single song on her is bad. Even the three I'm about to list are fun and enjoyable, but the shallowness that engulfs songs like `Instigator', `Body Language' and `Like Em Like That' can be a letdown. She shows so much depth on other tracks that it saddens me almost to hear her go off relentlessly about boys, boys, boys. This is not Lady Gaga (another shallow performer who is so much fun you don't care).
Also, for a rapper to refer to himself as `the fudge' is just, well, wrong.
Those three `fumbles' aside, this album is very solid. `Unbelievable' is a great pop track, one that got good radio play and should have propelled her to the heights of Jessica Simpson or Britney Spears (at least Mandy Moore levels of success, right?) but was quickly forgotten for some unknown reason. `The Waltz' is another one that just perfectly displays her pop appeal, with an edge that sets her apart. Her voice is outstanding here, and the way she plays with her own immaturity at the end ("you make me feel dumb") is just fun, playful and so likable.
I LOVE THE CLUB HEAVY BEAUTY THAT IS `MY BABY'!!!
For me, Brown totally thrives in areas where she can just seduce us with the purity of her voice and the soft, subtleness of a ballad. `Make You Love Me' is the most commercial of the offerings here. It is laced with a pop feel, yet the vulnerability in her voice shines through every word she sings.
But it gets better.
`Cadillac Hotel', `SOS', `You Fool' and the closing track `Thank You' are just gorgeous. The way she strips things down, giving us a raw and beautifully honed ballads. My favorite track here is `Cadillac Hotel', where Kaci strums her guitar and talks of a leisure life that is so appealing and so connected you can't help but want to sit there next to her. `SOS' is a magnificent track of losing and `You Fool' is such a genuinely stunning look at young love I just fall to pieces listen to her croon. `Thank You' is a tender moment between Brown and those who have supported her along the way.
I want her to be a star, but sometimes what you want just doesn't happen. Hopefully her sophomore album will show her at her full potential (since I know she has ample amounts of it) and it will catapult her to the top of the mainstream.
Fingers crossed.
