American fans have waited for more than 3 years to get their hands on a Christina Milian album, and unfortunately, after hearing preview tracks from her self-titled debut, I would have to say her first time out was the real charm. Milian of course has to have guest appearances. Fabolous fits PERFECTLY inside the intoxicating rhythms of 'Dip it Low', but Joe Budden, who consistently appears on two tracks, fails to make his mark with his drunken drawls. His breakdown in the song L.O.V.E. is great when meshed with the 80's beats and Christina's honeyed vocals.

Elsewhere is typical R&B/pop fare. 'Highway' is the ultra-explicit slow jam that Milian can, and most likely will, use to seperate herself from her Disney days. The song is okay at first listen, but is easily skipable thereafter. In fact, besides Dip it Low, L.O.V.E, and the stomp/clap rhythms of Get Loose, Milian provides no consistency and absolutely no innovative, unexplored frontier. It is both unfair to American fans who have waited diligently for Milian's return, and unfair to Milian herself, who is deserving if not trying to be a baby 'J.Lo'

I Really Love This Album.
It's My Best R&B/Pop Album I Have Ever had it.It's About Time is like My Personal Thing. I'm The Biggest Fan Of Christina Milian. And I Love Her From her Debut Album "CM" which was My Best Album Until Now. In This Album, I discover that Christina Milian be more mature than before. And When I See her, I Feel Like she's Janet Jackson of 21 century.
And I just want to show my point of view about this legendry R&N/Pop Album.
1) Intro (5/5)
It's best beginning of her
2) Dip It Low (Featuring Fabolous) (10000000/5)
I Love This Song. Cos It's One Of My Best Christina Milian's Songs. But I Prefer It With S-Word & Lynnash.
3) I Need More (1000/5)
It's Amazing Song. I Love It very Much. It's better THan Rachel Stevens's "Glide"
4) Whatever U Want (Feat. Joe Budden)(50/5)
It's Good One. But Not My Best Song. I Prefer Am 2 Pm"
5) Someday One day (10000000000000000000000/5)
My Best Ballad Song In This Album. I Think That Mrs. Milian Falls In Love. Cos It's a Real Story.
6)Highway (1000000000000000000000/5)
I Love This Song Very Much. It's Like R. Kelly's "Ignition"
7) Get Lose (50000000000000/5)
My Best R&B/Pop Song After "When U Look At Me"
8) I'm Sorry (10000000000000000/5)
I Love This Song. But I Find that "I'm Sorry " (Remix Feat. Jim Jones) Better Than This.
9) L.O.V.E (Feat. Joe Budden) (1000000/5)
Good Song with Best Rhythm
10) Peanut, Butter & Jelly (10000000000/5)
One Of My Best Song
11) Miss U Like Crazy (10000/5)
Good Song
12) Oh Daddy (1000000000000000000000000/5)
I Think This Song Is About Divorce, Isn't It?
13) I Can Be That Woman (1111111110000000/5)
I Love It.
14) Hand On Me
My Best R&B/Pop Song

1ST OF ALL, THURRS THIS SO-CALLED "MUSIC FAN" THAT NEVER BOUGHT HER CD CUZ HE/SHE LISSENS TA ROCK! THIS IS A R&B/HIP-POP ALBUM. HATERS = JEALOUSY & ENVY

Intro-
the intro is simply saying its about time she told us about her self and its about time she was back, it is actually a very good intro and wouldve been good if it ad been made into a real track! 5/5

Dip it Low feat fabolous-
You've all heard Dip It Low havent you, you've heard the version when she sings by herself and if you've got cd 2 of the single you wouldve heard the version wit shawna but this version features Fabolous and it is just as good as the other two! his rap is really clever and catchy but christina brill as well and a good vid to go wit it! 5/5

I Need more-
This actually a pop rock song and surprisingly its quite good, very catchy I like the song as I like songs with a rocky edge like this but I can't see this as a single but it would be good as one! It actually sounds a bit like britney i got that boom Boom on the chorus! Plus her song I Need More actually samples rachel stevens glide even though it doesnt say in the credits so i thought i'd point that out! 5/5

Whatever U Want-
This is 2nd single to be taken of the album as it was announced last week, and it is very catchy and very 80's this will do well in my opinion and it is single material, its got a catchy chorus that we will all be singing to soon! Its due out in august! 5/5

Someday Oneday-
For all of you who havent got her first album you won't of heard her singing a ballad and this is and its very good! her vocals are very good and really suit the song the bridge is very catchy and I could see this as a single! 4.5/5

Highway-
Looking at the title you would think its going to be a very funky song but its not its actually a very mid tempo and is quite catchy! I can't see it as a single if it was to be a single it would have to be a new version funkier its still good! 4/5

Get Loose-
This sounds like something that R Kelly has written like snake, I really like this its a real grower loving it! Its got a catchy bridge and chorus and I could see this a single as its quite different don't hear alot of songs like this! 5/5

I'm Sorry-
This song is brill the music really compliments the song with the drums in the background and it sounds like a motown and you don't hear alot of them nowadays! very good can also see this as a single! 5/5

L.O.V.E feat joe budden-
This is very 80's and really cool. joes rap is very catchy and christinas chorus is really catchy and I'm it now while I'm listening to it! Her vocals are very strong on this and really compliments the song. This could also be a single I like it! 5/5

Peanut Butter & Jelly-
this is one hell of a groove and if you listen to this you gotta tap your feet and nod your head! Brilliant this is soooooooooooooooooooo catchy can see this a single most definatly 5/5

Miss You Like Crazy-
the lyrics to this a very good like I MISS YOU LIKE THE SKY MISSES THE BIRDS I MISS YOU LIKE A SONG WITHOUT THE WORDS really good very catchy this could also be a single! 4.5/5

Oh Daddy-
I know if you look at the title of this song you think its gon be about sex but your wrong its actually a very emotional song about how her dad left her when she was young very sad but cannot see this as a single 4/5

Over all this album is brilliant and is very different to her debut Christina Milian. Theres alot of single potential on here and I can't wait to here about the rest of the singles here Is what I think should be the singles!

1. Dip It Low
2. Whatever U Want
3. I'm Sorry
4. Peanut Butter & Jelly
5. I Need More/ I Can Be That Woman

CHRISTINA UR BRILLIANT!!!
