Jennifer Lopez Album: “This Is Me...Then [Bonus Track]”

Another album in a pop music market that bites big time. In no way should you buy "Charmbrcelet", you will be be disappointed you wasted your money. On both albums, there is nothing but dead air. Where is the soul, the depth, the deeper meaning!? For great Pop music, look to Australia, Europe & Central America & the Carribean for better music. Get musicv from real latina vocalists like Judy Torres, Nayobe, Breada K. Starr, Tina B, Cynthia, Safire, & Alisha.

There are no fast songs on this album what so ever.....except jenny from the block--which is just a dumb song to begin with. All the songs are ballads that sound terrible cuz jlo doesnt have the voice for them.....if you want this album go for it but dont say i didnt warn you.

It's really sad when artists like Jennifer Lopez put out records that don't have any quality just to sell and make more money! Let's face it, Jennifer has mediocre talent and she just uses other artists to get what she wants! Jennifer's voice is appauling to say the least....her voice has no strength or versatility whatsoever, yet she has the nerves to sing and put out records? Her voice practically ruins any song she sings! This new album truly showcases how bad her voice is, especially when she's singing dreadful ballads such as "Dear Ben". Most of the albums other cut's are just the same over-produced fluff she's known for! It's a disgrace that her record company even keep releasing any of her material to the public! Jennifer is just pure "show". She uses her body and image to sell her records and movies! Fortunately, more and more people are starting to realize that J-Lo ain't REAL!

I know people who search for this cd are probably all fans of Jlo already, hoping to see a bunch of positive reviews supporting their favorite artist. Once they see the title of my review and the negative words that go with it, I'm certain it won't be voted very popular. However, that's not why I'm writing this review. I'm writing it as a warning to let all of the fans know that this cd is BORING. Straight up boring. If I could underline the word boring, I would in a heartbeat.

Every song on this cd is slow. Now when you think of slow songs, you think of Mariah or Whitney or Celine or even Janet, but certainly not Jlo. First of all, her vocals have to be weakest vocals in the business. Even with modern day technology, she still sounds a step below mediocre. There's a reason she doesn't tour and it's not because she's making hit movies. Lets be .. REAL. So Ms. Soon To Be Mrs. Affleck should stay away from the ballads. Far away. Now, after all of the ballads are taken off of this cd, what you're left with is one song, Jenny From The Block.

This song, which I really like because of it's infectious beats, in reality has to be the tackiest song of the year. Jlo, who prances around Hollywood like God wants us to all know that she's real and has stayed true to her roots. Uh Huh. I don't know too many people "from the block" who ride around in limos, wear dresses more expensive than the places they grew up in and switch husbands more often than most people change the tires on their cars. The best version of Jenny From The Block is the one without the rap, but what is on the cd is the version with the rap; which, of course, is her way of distracting people from the two seconds worth of thought that was actually put into this song. Which is about a second more than what was put into the entire cd.

I really do like most of Jlo's music, but not this cd. Not at all. Sadly, Jlo is starting to take herself seriously and frankly, no one else does.

If you are ever in a clutch and need to entertain a large crowd of people, just run over to K-Mart, search thru the dollar bin and grab a copy of This is Me...Then by J. Lo, oh I'm sorry, Jennifer Lop.... sorry again, I mean Jenny from the Block!

This album will keep you and your friends laughing for hours at end and by the time you reach "Dear Ben" get some napkins because somebody will most likely pee themselves!

Whoever told Mrs. Affleck she could pull off a song all by herself, without collaborating with Lil' (Insert ANY Name) helping her out should be forced to listen to this album!

Somebody who can't keep a marriage together for more than five minutes should stop putting out mediocre albums filled with love songs devoted to her current fiance.

This album proves Jen can NOT sing, but it is sure fun listening to her try!
