"I've been a fan of Tata Young's album "I Believe" since the day it came out. I was anxious for another English album, and because "Dangerous Tata" is partly in English, I decided to buy it. I was happily surprised while listening. The first single "Dangerous" is instantly catchy, and is much more hip hop/R&B than anything she's done before. There are several other great songs, as well as a stunning digipack with gorgeous glossy photos. Here's an overview of the tracks:



1. Dangerous - VERY hip hop/rap. If this were in English, it would do well in America. Awesome vocals and a super catchy chorus make this one a winner. 10/10

2. Shinning - A slow, calm ballad. I'm not sure if I like the man singing, but Tata sounds amazing as usual. 8/10

3. Completely - Sounds rather like Shinning. Another ballad, but sort of bland. 6/10

4. Love Without a Cause - An uptempo ballad. Cute and catchy, with a nice chorus. 8/10

5. I'll Be Your Girl - Another R&B influenced track. Picks up the pace after all those slow songs. The vocals blend with background music perfectly, and a rap halfway through the track adds to the essence of the song. 9/10

6. Give It Back to Me - A "girl power" song. Sounds powerful and emotional, Tata's strong vocals are perfect. 8/10

7. Love Song in the Wind - How did you know? Another ballad. This one, however, has a beautiful melody, and sounds sweet and sad. 9/10

8. In the Mood - Wow, another R&B song! Reminds me of something Beyonce might sing. 9/10

9. Hey Ma Ma Say - Probably my favorite upbeat song on the album. Totally catchy, totally amazing. Infectious beyond words! 10/10

10. Calling Inside - My favorite ballad of the album. This is the only truly gorgeous slow song on Dangerous Tata. Almost made me cry the first time I listened - and I don't even understand it! 10/10



While there are some fairly average tracks here, there are also some stunning ones. If you're a Tata fan, this is worth picking up for sure, or if you just want to branch out and listen to something new. Overall Album Grade: 9/10"
