Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere

If you can resist shaking your butt to the musical stylings of Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo (better known as Gnarls Barkley), you're the only one. Break out hits like Crazy and Go-Go Gadget Gospel will set the tone for your summer - guaranteed. The British Duo seemlessly blend soul, hip-hop, funk and dub with old-time spirituals to create an album that has you grooving from start to finish. The album finishes with The Last Time, which asks the question 'When was the last time you danced,' - The answer is obvious - we're dancing right now!

Christina Milian - So Amazin'

She's not even 25 years old but Christina Milian is already a successful singer, songwriter, actress and producer, which leads us to the question: what is she so angry about? Her latest album, So Amazin', hit shelves in May 2006 and features Christina getting down with her bitter self. Only problem? There ain't a lot of grrrr in her girl power. When Christina aims for P!nk-style rebellion on tracks like Hate It or Love It and Who's Gonna Ride, she ends up with Paris-style whining. The girl has wicked pipes, a great look and dance moves that will shock your grandma but this album falls flat under it's moody posturing. Not so amazin', if you ask us.
