Nelly Furtado...what happened? I remember when "Like a Bird" was released. I dug that song and Nelly's vibe. Now she returns with this pseudo-club hoe vibe on that terrible "Promiscuous." It's sad to me that this is what music has become. Folks are desperate to sell records now, so they don't take the chance at being an individual for fear of poor sales. Everyone looks like they just walked off the street or just came from the club in these videos. Folks are afraid to even look different.
My sister said Nelly looks like a soccer mom trying to be sexy and it ain't working. I agree, this style doesn't seem to fit her. perfection is a fallacy of the imagination... | |

Its called my label is about to dump me and i need at least one single to sell this album and get them off my back. Sorry people thats the truth in her case and alot of other artists.

I sure hope thats all it is, because she lost major cool points with that garbage. perfection is a fallacy of the imagination... | |

You know what's funny....I think people forgot that very early on while "I'm Like A Bird" was still out she was on the remix of Missy's "Get Ur Freak On". And "Turn Off The Lights" was very poppy. And your sister is wrong. Nelly is hot and doesn't look desperate....like Paris Hilton. | |

Yup....I actually think LOOSE is one of the most consistantly satisfying pop records in some time...it's the first pop CD I've purchased in a long time. It's not all one-dimensional....there are many different style showcased here...then there's that killer ballad in the end...the 'All good thing come to an end' song is so beautiful! And the Juanes duet is hot as heyall! peace Every minute of last night is on my face today.... | |

You must have missed Furtado's appearance on "Ching Ching" by Ms Jade about mm 5 years ago. Nelly is multifaceted! | |

To each their own i guess. I actually really like Nelly's latest. All i have seen and heard is "Maneater" and "Promiscuous Girl", but if the rest of the album is like those 2 then i will like it very much indeed. I think she is very talented and very flexible, and can do a lot of different things, as "Loose" shows. | |

Ah she's aiight and she's cute like the rest of the little popsy wopsies these days. I saw her on stage with Carlos Santana (can't remember what) about 4 years ago or so, but I decided to listen since everyone was making a big deal out of her and her voice was cracking and she was singing predominantly out of key, so I pretty much changed the channel and forgot about her. Hopefully, she got some help for that voice.

LQ yes she did. i saw her live a few months ago at a festival here in holland and despite liking her songs, i had very low expectations for a performance but boy was i wrong. her show actually turned out to be one of the 3 highlights of the festival for me. i don't know who coached her but her voice was extremely good and she didnt sound any different than on her records. the show itself was lively, energetic and fun. she was lovely to the crowd and interacted with everyone very well. guys left right and center were falling in love with her right there and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Exactly. I don't know why people are so quick to box her. Yes she does acoustic-flavored music, but she's a part of today's generation and she grew up listening to and appreciating a wide variety of music from urban to indie to dance. Much of that is reflected in Loose. Ever since the Whoa Nelly days she's always talked about growing up listening to R&B and loving and being influenced by popular artists like Janet. So, working with producers like Timbaland isn't much of a stretch since she was linked up with Timbo wayyy back in '01 with the remixes of "Turn Off The Light" and her much-lauded appearance on Missy's "Get Ya Freek On" -- which I vividly remember getting a lot of club/DJ play at the time. | |
