WORST ALBUMS of 2006 =
Pop:
1. "Back 2 Basics," Christina Aguilera
No matter what kind of music she does, her voice is incredibly annoying. I suppose if I loved the sound of a dying frog I'd enjoy her record. Ironically, there's only one good song to come from that CD, and she didn't even write it. "Hurt." Sorry to say, this is a total nosedive from her Stripped album, which I thought was as good as it gets. And I was right. This CD is nothing but utter crap from a performer that tries too hard to be original. Bitch, we know you can sing, stop trying to impress us. I definitely am not impressed. In fact, you made me want to fly to wherever the hell you live and egg your mansion which I've questioned whether you deserve. This sound, this album, and oversinging...it doesn't work for you, X.
2. "Confessions On A Dance Floor," Madonna
If it wasn't for the corny lyrics and the tracks all being connected together, this CD might have been good at one point. But the tired 80's disco dance sound is completely unoriginal and out of Madonna's league. She is capable of so much better and everything up to this album has been a masterpiece in it's own right. What happened? Has she lost her touch? Prove me wrong, woman, prove me wrong. I'm led to believe if it wasn't for her pointless publicity stunts, nobody would have bought this album - heh, and in the U.S., nobody did lol. If this is your best, just retire already. Even Cher knew when to stop.
R&B:
1. "20 Y.O.," Janet Jackson
WHAT THE FUUUUUCK WERE YOU THINKING? Jermaine Dupri isn't the best out there, you know. Just because you're bootybumpin doesn't mean he HAS to produce your album. Just because it worked for Mariah doesn't mean it would work for you. I think this album has some good tracks, if only I could understand what the hell she was saying in them. SING Janet, for once. It took years to get Mariah to do it, now that she has, I think you can do it too! Look what it did for her!
2. "The Makings Of Me," Monica
I love you to death girl, but damn. Get with the effing program. This new "side" of you was good for ONE song (unfortunately not it's video), but I digress. This album disappointed me. You don't go from a completely sweet album to something I had to return to the half-off bin. Not to mention, only 10 tracks? If you were gonna deprive us of more, you could have at least picked the GOOD tracks. I love you a lot but I think you need to be bitch-slapped along with Madonna and Janet. And don't even get me started on Celine...
3. "FutureSex/LoveSounds," Justin Timberlake
You may be hot, but your CD sucks big time. The lyrics are good but, son, all of your songs sound exactly the same. Theyre all bland and boring. NEEEEXT.
Rock:
1. "Soundtrack To Your Life," Ashley Parker Angel
Was this a joke? Did we get punk'd or something?
2. "The Open Door," Evanescence
Well, as a follow up to Fallen, this fell short of how I thought it would be. The first single even got tired after a few plays. Their first album I could listen to all week long over and over and never get tired of. This one - I don't think I listened to it after its second listen. Anybody want it?
Country:
1. "White Trash With Money," Toby Keith
Bottom line: You shouldn't have had money in the first place. One of the worst CDs I've ever heard, and according to it's extremely disappointing sales, many agree. Finally, maybe people have realize he's a fake and a phony. Yeah, I don't support artists who capitalize on the down fall of others and I don't fake patriotism to make MORE money, either. Piece of shit best describes this record as well as the artist who made it.
