Ashanti and Lindsay Lohan CD Reviews
Music review for Ashanti's third album, Concrete Rose, and Lindsay Lohan's debut album, Speak.
Ashanti - Concrete Rose
In just a few years, Ashanti has gone from hook girl to R&B superstar. After the success of her first two albums, Ashanti and Chapter II, she returns with her third album, Concrete Rose. It's full of great uptempo R&B tracks and vocal guests, like T.I. and Lloyd - but it's also filled with useless interludes. However, the album ends on a high note with a bonus track of the Wonderful remix with Ja Rule and R. Kelly.
Ashanti - Concrete Rose Fun Facts
- Ashanti's album is called Concrete Rose because hip-hop is gritty, like concrete, and R&B is soft and smooth, like a rose.
- Ashanti's first single, Only U, debuted at No. 63 on the Billboard Hot 100, and is quickly climbing the charts each week.
- The video for Only U was shot in Vancouver, Canada and Mexico City.

The album is a mix of dance/pop/rock tracks that sound similar to songs by fellow teen queens like Hilary Duff and Britney Spears.
