"LOOSE" (album release date May 23, 2006)

(Loose!) When the music hits U don't know what 2 do
Push your way up 2 the front and shake your motherfuckin' 'do
Loose!

(Loose!)
Fuckin' 'do Loose! (Loose!)

I love Nelly. I cannot wait for this new album.

"Promiscuous Girl (feat. Timbaland)" will be the first single. The video should be all over TV in the coming weeks.

Me too!

I love Folklore!

I'm Portuguese like her! And I'm from the Azores as are her parents!

You've just earn some bonus points. hehe!

Yeah, "Folklore" was a lush albeit underappreciated effort. I still love "Picture Perfect," "Try" and "Grass Is Green."

I need to see her live eventually. Have you, by chance?

Oh my god theirs so many great pop albums coming out this year, it's going to be expensive.

Pink, Nelly, Janet, Goldfrapp (still have to get it) and Prince.

lol

I think her first album wasn't that good except for Turn Off The Light. The rest of the songs were way too teeny-pop.

But Folklore was really great! I love some of the songs off that album!

She looks great in this picture.

so she is going r&b/dance on this album?

She is going for a more commerical sound thus why Timba's on board with some others...

I know Nelly and she let me hear the first single and this is got HUGE potential to be a huige hit

Told her she is gonna be competing against her hero (she is a big P fan) and she is kinda freaked out by it but thinks its gonna be fun

She has yet to hear 3121 and refuses to download it before its released - what a puritan!

I told her he stole a sample she used on her debut CD and she cant believe it! Well, believe it Nellstar

so, does this make her the new susanne vega or the new liz phair?

"Whoa Nelly" had its moments and when it had those moments it far outshined a lot of the lackluster stuff on the album. "Whoa Nelly" survived in my eyes because of Turn Off The Light, I'm Like A Bird, Party and ...On The Radio.

And, whoa, the urban remixes she did around this time were bliss. I think that's what she's trying to re-capture with "Loose."

the Neptunes & Timbaland is supposed to do production on this album

Yeah, they should, like 2020 said, "Folklore" wasn't well recieved cause it was out of touch with American radio (Not that I care about that! But if ya wanna sell some records you gotta appeal to the kidz!) This time out, I feel Nelly wants to be as leftfield as she was on Folklore, but in a more commercial, radio-friendlier way. And in 2006 that means urban/hip hop chic.

Hopefully, it'll be sort of like Kelis' "Wanderland," which was the perfect mix between leftfield and commercial.

JANFAN4L said:

Wanderland should have shed about 4 tracks...just about 4..maybe 5

paisleypark4 said:

I feel you, it was kinda overlong in spots.

JANFAN4L said:

Well I added the bonus tracks and stuff on it too which didnt help

paisleypark4 said:

Ooh, I wanna chat this up with you!

Come with me to the "Bossy" thread and we can go to town on early Kelis! LOVE IT.

As you must all know, We, Portuguese are hot as hell!

MikeMatronik said:

LOL @ you constantly popping that pic up!

Just found out she worked with the Neptunes on a track called "No Hay Igual (feat. Pharrell)."

She's definitely going in a more urban-influenced direction this time.

i got so into 'folklore' that i'm afraid the new one will let me down. 'folklore' is like...perfect.

JANFAN4L said:

I'm with you on that one. I swear most of my pay check goes on cds.

What other albums are you looking forward to?

Another crack addict looking gal, with an airbrushed butt.
