Amazon.co.uk Review
The contrivance level is high on this debut by an R&B singer named for her out-of-a-bottle hair colour. La Face Records' latest female discovery is positioned midway between mainstream hip-hop soul and poor imitations of Kelis-style anger. Producer-writer She'kspere brings out his trademark machine beats for "There You Go", a pale copy of Kelis' "You Oughta Know". Still, that single's more artful than "Split Personality", which clumsily attempts to acknowledge three-dimensional human reality but really sounds like a fit of whining until Pink unleashes the inevitable melisma over the song's coda. Elsewhere, she makes nice on standard-issue ballads ("Stop Falling") and lite-reggae proclamations of love ("Private Show"). "I just wanna make you feel things", Pink sings at one point. Unfortunately, the emotion the cynical track Can't Take Me Home inspires most is annoyance. --Rickey Wright

CD Description

The album also features the singles 'You Make Me Sick', 'Most Girls', and 'There You Go'.

Customer Reviews

Where has the Pink on this album gone?
I cannot tell you how surprised I was first of all to see the producers on this album (Babyface, She'kspere, Trixter) and secondly to hear the songs. This album is one of the swankiest, funkiest and downright enjoyable slices of R&B I have heard in a long time. The title track is absolutely fantastic and the album never loses momentum from then on, Pink even pulls off a few killer ballad style tracks without a hitch.

You might say having Babyface (Toni Braxton's favourite producer) work on your album could make anyone sound good but I think Pink really shines on this album, her vocals are husky but limitless, she can pull of those high notes.

The one thing I was wondering, where has Pink gone since making this album? Maybe it was just that her label got her wrong and underneath this album's slinky R&B exterior, she was a rock chick all along but I definitely know which she does with most ease and attitude.

Pink, you are not a rock chick, get back in the studio and make "Can't Take Me Home Pt. 2" I was really looking forward to some more collaborations with other R&B artists and producers but you've gone in the complete wrong direction and I'm so annoyed about it. However, that doesn't stop me clinging on to this album for dear life, it is pure R&B genius. Buy it now if you are a dedicated or passive R&B fan, you hopefully won't be dissapointed, I definitely am not.

PS. The garage remixes of "There You Go" and "Most Girls" at the end of the album are awful but the actual album tracks are all faultless, no exaggeration they are all fantastic.

Mean and moody soul-hop
Most of Pink's debut album is absolutely brilliant, comprising snarling lyrics, kicking beats and slamming b-lines - this is what modern rnb should sound like. The first four tracks are undoubtedly the best (especially the singles Most Girls and There You Go) but things start to get a bit grating on the lame love songs and epic ballads. Stop Falling works surprisingly well, but the other slow songs are pretty terrible. However, there are more than enough exhilirating hip-hop songs (like the fantastic title track) to make up for any hiccups. Hopefully, Pink will now get to work with some of the huge producers like Timbaland and Darkchild for her next album, thanks to her amazing voice and sex appeal. She deserves to be a big star.

R n B- is the only word you need.
This album is absouloutly excellent. The songs are pure R N B and contain funky beats and cool lyrics. There are a lot of standout tracks including: Hell wit ya, Split Personality, Can't take me home.The album includes There u go, most girls and u make me sick. This is one of the most astonishing albums i've ever heard- buy it.
