| HARD CANDY continues in the driving, club-oriented vein of 2005's CONFESSIONS ON A DANCE FLOOR, proving that Madonna has lost none of her energy and verve with age. In terms of material, in fact, HARD CANDY bests its predecessor, and the artist continues to make herself relevant in the 2000s by adding distinctly hip-hop grooves to her increasingly electronica-driven sound. Remarkably, the result never sounds like a blatant commercial appeal. As with nearly everything she's done, this ... |

| The soundtrack for the card-counting thriller 21 focuses exclusively on catchy club tracks, and subsequently complements perfectly the anxious pace and glammy Vegas subject matter of the film. There are many stars scattered throughout the soundtrack--Rihanna, Peter Bjorn and John, Broadcast, and LCD Soundsystem--but the true stand-outs belong to the lesser lights: Get Shakes, who deliver the electro-disco thumper "Sister Self Doubt" and Soulwax, who remixes the Stones' "You Can't Always ... |

| The cover of Danity Kane's sophomore release features the group members draped in negligees and bedsheets, and WELCOME TO THE DOLLHOUSE makes good on the breezy, sexy allure of the image. With studio help from trackmasters Danja and Bryan Michael Cox, among others, and guest appearances from the likes of P. Diddy and Missy Elliott, Danity Kane have crafted a frothy collection of R&B-infused pop that bursts with radio-ready tunes. The ladies prove adept at lush balladry ("Ecstasy"), uptempo ... |

| Although there are a few blasts of upfront silliness--Deadeye Dick's new-wavish "New Age Girl," and Willi One Blood's dancehall sendup "Whiney, Whiney"--the soundtrack to the Jim Carrey, Jeff Daniels comedy doesn't try to be dumb at all. The best-known of these bands contribute cover versions, and instead of playing them for irony or humor, they play them to emphasize their own strengths. Thus, the Crash Test Dummies, whose specialty is the folk-rock story song, cover XTC's fable "The ... |

| Recording information: The Sweat Hotel, Atlanta, GA. JUST ME is Keith Sweat's first studio album since 2002's REBIRTH, but longtime fans needn't fear that Sweat has undergone any major changes. From the sad but silky smooth opener, "Somebody," featuring Chris "F.L.O." Conner, to Sweat's pleading croon on "Teach Me," the album's closer, JUST ME is classic Sweat. Uptempo dance tracks would be a distraction, so Sweat sticks to what he does best: contemporary quiet storm that acts as the ... |

| This two-disc compilation brings together some of the finest Christian-oriented artists in a veritable cavalcade of spiritual pop music. Listening to the Praise Band's "Rock of Ages," Kathryn Scott's "Hungry (Falling on my Knees)," and Sonic Flood's "In the Secret," the degree to which worship-based lyrics and secular musical formats are unselfconsciously combined is striking. The artists included here venture into several distinct stylistic areas, including pop, rock, and country, but the ... |

On her 2006 debut, NO PLACE LIKE BROOKLYN, New York City-based actress/singer Jeannie Ortega offers up a confident collection of accessible, hip-hop-flecked R&B tunes. Opening with the catchy, beat-driven single "Crowded," featuring rapper Papoose, Ortega comes off as a younger, more earnest Brooklyn version of Bronx native Jennifer Lopez. However, Ortega opts for a slightly more dynamic sound ... |
