Houston MC Chamillionaire's second album, Ultimate Victory, combines "intelligence and a sick flow,” according to AllHipHop.com. “Although Chamillionaire shuns vulgarity,” writes Yahoo Canada, “he doesn't sound like a lame rapper without it. He's still successful with his signature fast-paced raps over catchy hooks.”
The Queen of Latin pop, Gloria Estefan, delivers her tenth studio album, 90 Millas. The Miami Herald finds the album “mechanical and uninspired … from Santana to Arturo Sandoval ... it just seems like they couldn't come up with anything fresh.”
Puerto Rican pop-rockers Circo are back with their third studio album, Cursi (Campy). The blog Over The Top describes Cursi as a "cool record" that mixes new wave, electronica and pop melodies to create an "'80s-meets-2007 vibe that sounds old yet new." The New York Post loves Circo's “futuristic" sound: "Puerto Ricans can boast about having the best salsa bands and reggaetón rappers in the world, sure. But now, islanders can brag about having an exceptional rock group, too."
James Blunt, the British singer best known for the mega-smash hit You're Beautiful, returns with his sophomore album, All The Lost Souls. “Blunt again delves into pretty folk pop ... showing a gift for drabness on forgettable ballads that make Coldplay seem like the Arctic Monkeys,” writes Rolling Stone. Entertainment Weekly completely disagrees and gives All The Lost Souls a "B+" rating: "There's something almost punk rock about his steadfast refusal to rock."
