"I was reading the reviews and I saw that she swears. I like to buy "clean CDs" when possible. So, I researched the lyrics before I bought this for my 7-year old daughter. I was shocked that the bad word was "HELL". I am laughing that you are all so upset over the word "HELL". They hear worse on regular TV!! Or the school yard. Or from you! We should just be glad that is the worst word on her CD. I am now buying this and will be giving it to her for Christmas. Seriously people ... you almost deterred my purchase. Glad I looked up what this "profanity" was."

Vanessa Hudgen's V - Album Review

09/26/2006

(3 out of 5 stars)

""Y'all need to get ready to hear the unbelievable, indescribable, Vanessa Hudgens," raps a guest star on Vanessa Anne Hudgen's (High School Musical) newest album, simply titled 'V'. Yet, after Hudgen's catchy R&B inspired single "Come Back To Me" ends I failed to see the unbelievable singer mentioned as the first track began. Hudgen's has musical capability, yet her CD fails to compare to earlier album's released by other Disney acts.

After "Come Back To Me", Vanessa sticks to the R&B vibe and let's loose on "Let Go" - a girls night out song that has a creative big band backtrack. "Say Ok", the album's first ballad, fails to bring any emotion. The guitar heavy girl anthem "Never Underestimate A Girl" comes next - the song is undoubtedly a tweenage spin-off of Destiny's Child's "Independent Woman". A beat driven "Let's Dance" comes next, but the muffled singing and hard guitar beats ruin the song. Hudgen's is at her best on the pop-rock songs "Drive", "Afraid", and "Rather Be With You", which resemble early Hilary Duff material. 'V' ends with "Lose Your Love" - a song reminiscent of Beyonce's singles. Other tracks include "Whatever Will Be", "Promise", and "Psychic".

Although 'V' has its faults, it's a solid effort; and even though Hudgen's has proved she has no problem pulling off any type of music, her next album should stray from dabbling in to many varieties of music as 'V' does.

JUST 'SAY OK' AND BUY VANESSAS ALBUM!!

"this is truely a really great album, each song adds something to the album, theyre all really great. heres a lowdown on each track:

01. COME BACK TO ME - the lead single for the album, everyone knows this one. its fun, catchy, great story behind it. V sounds amazing on this.

02. LET GO - said to be the next single. I Think everyone can relate to this, just about wanting to have a little fun, and party, and jsut let everything go.

03. SAY OK - great mellow, chilled out song. V's vocals sound absoultly BEAUTIFUL on this track, and the lyrics are amazing

04. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE A GIRL - great fast pased song. four words. TRUE GIRL POWER ANTHEM! (haha)

05. LET'S DANCE - one of my personal favorites, great beat...this NEEDS to be a single..i think itd be awsome if they remixed this track and put a rapper on it give it a real hip hop vibe.

06. DRIVE - the title pretty much says what this song is good for. haha, try it, driving in your car with this song blasting and the windows rolled down.

07. AFRAID - great ballad, this song belongs in a movie, it would have been perfect for a soundtrack to a really dramatic romance movie.

08. PROMISE - great beat on this song. Vanessa sounds beautiful on the verses, and the lyrics are amazing..i love her shout out to Mariah Carey on this one! ('I'll Be Tumbling down, but like MC,Shake It Off')

09. WHATEVER WILL BE - the lyrics to this song are again so good, Vanessa sounds so good on slow songs, her voice is just so pretty

10. RATHER BE WITH YOU - one of those real sing along kinda songs, really fun track

11. PSYSIC - good song, but its kinda childish..the lyrics are again really good..it jsut the beat is very kinda 2nd gradeish poppy. doesnt really fit my girl V.

12. LOSE YOUR LOVE - great way to close up the album V's voice is really nice on this one, and i love the clapping at the beginning of this song

THE BONUS TRACKS! :: the bonus tracks are all really good, i bought 3 copies of the cd jsut to get all the bonus songs..theyre all worthy of being on all editons of the CD;;

13. DRIP DROP - WALMART EXCLUSIVE BONUS TRACK - great beat, the lyrics are great, really good

13. TOO EMOTIONAL - BEST BUY EXCLUSIVE BONUS TRACK - honestly, this beat kinda sounds like it belongs in a spy movie haha, but its a really good song, very different, and the lyrics are great

13. DON'T TALK - TARGET EXCLUSIVE BONUS TRACK (ONE) - i feel like ive heard this one before..anyway its really good, V sounds different on this one, but its still real good

14. MAKE YOU MINE - TARGET EXCLUSIVE BONUS TRACK (TWO) - okay, this song is THE BEST SONG VANESSA HAS EVER RECORDED,SHE SOUNDS AMAZING ON IT, ITS GOT A GREAT BEAT AND THE LYRICS ARE AMAZING. this should have not only been on all versions of the cd, but it should have been the lead take off single instead of 'Come Back To Me'..no joke, it really is that good

so anyway, over all this album is worth buying. All songs are great, and the bonus's at certiain retailers are also very good."

Go Baby V!

"I bought this CD with my Christmas money, and I was NOT disappointed! It starts out with the first single, COME BACK TO ME, it's a great song, but honestly not the best. Then the cool, layed-back track LET GO comes next. It's about being to lazy, and we can all relate to that! Then things get slow as her second single, SAY OK, which is about being too shy, plays. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE A GIRL is a kind of girls are better than boys tone (I'm a guy) and it's not one of my faves. Then the album really heats up with the song that makes you wanna dance aptly tittled LET'S DANCE. It's a definate favorite! DRIVE is a song about getting away, or 'Breaking Free', get it! It's the second best on the CD. Then AFRAID is another slow song about being shy, but not as good as Say Ok. PROMISE is another song I don't listen to much. It's an upbeat song that's OK. Track number nine, my favorite is WHATEVER WILL BE! It's got outstanding lyrics and her vocals work perfectlyyy with the song! RATHER BE WITH YOU is a cool upbeat song. PSYCHIC is another just ok song about woring about boyfriend troubles. And finally, LOSE YOUR LOVE, rumors of being a third single, it is another great track. Good beat and lyrics. Hear is an overview of the tracks.

"I love this album. Although "Come Back to Me" was not the best choice for her first single, I still think that Vanessa has a lot of talent. I would have to say my favorite songs on V were "Drive", "Promise" and "Never Underestimate a Girl". I don't think she is just "one of those Disney girls" who thinks they can sing, Vanessa has real talent unlike some actresses on Disney Channel who just sing to be considered a triple threat, Vanessa actually is a as she demonstrated in High School Musical."
