I Thought She Flew Away: Nelly Furtado - Loose

she's been in hiding
working on a new C-D
clearly it paid off

Today, Nelly Furtado's Loose album hit the iTunes Music Store as well as those ancient retail locations world wide. I gotta tell ya folks, shit's pretty hot, and I mean besides the track that most of you heard on that random VZW commercial.

She's joined on the album by Timbaland, who's deep voice and killer beats add so much to the musical texture, and Juanes who adds an infectious spanish hook in two of the tracks; both of whom I enjoy. From the first track to the last track, none of which sound the same, will keep your attention and make you wonder aloud, "Nelly, where the fuck you been?". I know I did.

I got a copy of this CD off of iTunes. For ten bucks it is definitely worth it. Not only do you get the whole CD, but you also get an interactive version of the booklet that usually comes in the CD case. Surely that must be worth something. The only thing I didn't like were the small interludes -- but that's not a Nelly Furtado problem, I just don't like the interruptions. All in all, I think you should check out the CD -- it's different than her old stuff and it's a lot more hip hop than it is pop.
