close but no cigar. . .

Cubic U, otherwise known as Utada Hikaru, had her first debut album in Japan under this Toshiba EMI label. Although I like the first debut album of Utada Hikaru "First Love" more, I have to give a lot of respect to Cubic U (same person), because at the age when these tracks were created, she was a mere 14 years old!! The HEAVY American influence is obvious in each track, as it emulates some of the late 1990 sounds of R&B artists. However the major problem I have with the album is that most of the tracks sound TOO much alike. They're generally with a slow rhythm, it's catchy, but I don't know if you want to hear the same type of rhythm for 12 tracks straight. Some of the songs that break the mold, and are among my favorites on the album are track 1: my little lover boy; track 4: i don't love you; and track 9 work things out.
I got this CD to find out just what Utada Hikaru was like before she made it big, and although her voice is still the same, the styles from "Precious" to "First Love" are vastly different. It amazed me that "Precious" only sold 350K (I believe that's right) albums, but now I understand why. Thank goodness Hikki's styles got a touch-up, and now presents a much more round style set, from dance beats to love songs. If you're looking for some R&B beats, this isn't a bad CD at all, but if you've had a taste of Hikki and are coming back to check out her origins, you'll be a bit disappointed.

I first heard about Hikaru when I heard her English version of 'Hikari' for the Kingdom Hearts video game. I started listening to her Japanese songs and I was seriously hooked! All her songs were wonderful, then I listened to the songs in her English album, "Precious", and they were wonderful! I really like the songs, Precious Love, Promise, and How Ya Doin. But seriously, all of her songs are just wonderful!
