Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Like Will Smith, Jennifer Lopez has entered the singing, dancing, acting, can-do-anything zone of the bona fide superstar and has developed an ego to match her talents. J.Lo, the follow-up to her multi-platinum 1999 debut On The 6, makes little attempt to tinker with the latino soul formula she patented back then, employing an army of co-producers and writers (including partner Puffy) to assemble a slick, 15-track affair. If anything, her sound is safe, retro even, with some tracks looking back to the 1980s, particularly the Michael Jackson-influenced "I'm Real" and the funky, impressive "Play". Her Puerto Rican background comes to the fore on a handful of Spanish numbers, notably "Cariño", which samples Cuban percussionist Mongo Santamaria's "Sofrito" to impressive effect. It goes badly wrong on the "La Isla Bonita" sound-a-like, "Ain't It Funny", which merely serves to reinforce the impression that Lopez is happy to settle for being the latino Madonna. --Mike Pattenden

CD Description
Second album from actress turned pop star includes the hit singles 'Loved don't cost a thing', 'Play' and 'I'm real'. Amore pop styled effort than her debut with a much less overt Latin influence.

5.0 out of 5 stars J. Lo is Slammin', 11 May 2001
By A Customer
Jennifer Lopez's J. Lo is a rich mixture of Pop, RnB and Dance but unlike On The 6 It isn't heavily laced with latin influences or Ballads. So here's a track by track rundown of this album. Love Don't Cost A Thing- Sassy RnB stompin track. I'm Real- Oriental feel, has an eighties edge a track definetly made for the summer, you can imagine cruisind in your drop top convertible and I'm definetly sure that P. Diddy is MC-ing on the chorus. Play-Electronic, sassy RnB dance track complete with a curse word. Walking On Sushine- P. Diddy produced House/trance track better than most trance tracks out there. Ain't It funny-Reminiscent of Enrique Iglesias Bailamos. Carino- J. Lo sings in a sultry Mary J Blige-y way over a backing track more at home on a Santana Lp. Come Over-Sexy Sultry song. One for those nights when your'e alone with your partner. We Gotta Talk- Song with loads of attitude J.Lo sings real good on this one. That's Not Me- Operatic Drama. But I don't think J.Lo actually cooks cleans and washes her boyfriends clothes. Dance With Me- Latin influenced precussive track. P. Diddy produced, reminiscent of Busta Rhymes Put Your Hands Where My Eyes can see. Secretly- Sweet Ballad without any kind of bassline. Sounds familiar to Janet Jackson's Again. I'm Gonna Be alright. Sassy Pop RnB confident song. That's The Way- Darkchild produced pop/RnB track. Dame (Touch Me) - Blazing, latin track. Si Ya Se Acabo- No Idea what she's singing but still sounds Good. Album is more poptastic than the last but this is still good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprising, 11 April 2001
By A Customer
I've never been a huge Jennifer fan but I fell in love with both 'Love Dont cost a thing' and 'Play' when I first heard them and decided to give the album a go. To be honest it's a mixture- some RnB, some latino and a few in-between, album fillers that dont do much. The album would be better if certain tracks were a bit more uptempo, since this is what J. Lo does best. Having said that, track 11- 'Secretly' is a soft, gentle and totally listenable chillout tune, it sounds far better when you have someone there (preferably of the opposite sex) to chill with. I also have to disagree with some of the critics who slated track 5- 'Ain't it funny', which I personally love. It's got such a great (if predictable) melody that makes you want to sing along. 'Walking on Sunshine' is probably the most diverse, with a more electronic sound that took me by surpirse since I didn't expect something like it on an album like this- its a new sound that J.Lo can do nicely. 'Play' is one of my favourites since it has buckets of attitude and just makes me want to dance all the time. Although some tracks are a bit samey, the good tracks are very good and I haven't worn them out yet, and I'm not sure that I ever will. If you love RnB and Latino you will probably really enjoy this since both are used to good effect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Retro Latin Soul Funk Pop, 12 Oct 2001
By A Customer
Jennifer Lopez is huge. HUGE! 3 number one movies in a row. Officially the sexiest woman in the world. Dammit, she even has a catch phrase instead of a name. But the music has always been her weak point, until JLo - the biggest, loudest, stupidest, funnest pop album of the year bar none.

Thankfully she has abandoned the Latin diva pretensions of her debut On The Six and has adopted a brand new ghetto fabulous image, attitude and sound.

And it's fantastic! Love Don't Cost A Thing totally saturated the radio this winter, but still sounds fresh. It also reflects the album's sound - lots of noise, lots of hooks and lots of Jennifer. Unlike many albums, JLo is refreshingly free of pointless collaborations and instead focuses on Jennifer, centre stage the whole way through.

Some tracks are spacey and futuristic like the obligatory Rodney Jerking song That's The Way (very groovy) and P Diddy contribution Walking On Sunshine.

But basically, the album has a safe, retro sound. Check out I'm Real for some classic 80s pop, or Play for a squelchy disco wig out. Other highlights include the devilishly funky Dance With Me and the sprawling epic That's Not Me.

Even the Latin songs are good. Carino is brilliantly catchy and has a nice live band feel, and Si Ya Se Acabo is the most mature song on the album - authentic, classy and (gasp!) well sung.

Yeah, she's no Mariah, but Jennifer has a sweet, supple voice and handles everything here with ease and confidence, especially the sultry ballads Come Over and Secretly.

All in all, this is definitely not art, but it is good fun, and has a hell of a lot more style and class than most of the crap in the charts. Oh, and the photos are nice too. Genuinely excellent stuff from one of the world's true stars.
