At first glance, Fergie may look like just a glitzy pop star, and you might think that since this is her freshman effort that it may be without much substance, but this album proves that she has an amazing voice and loads of talent. Some of the tracks are slow, some fast, and some are inbetween. It's jazzy, funky (Fergalicious), sexy (Losing My Ground), fun (Mary Jane Shoes) and every track shows another facet to this diamond of a performer. Ludacris and will.i.am add some rap flavor, but not too much for fans that aren't so "into" the genre, and the musical arrangements are very tight, balanced, and original. As Fergie says, "Check it out!"
