The intro of Nina Sky's self-titled debut announces twin sisters Natalie and Nicole Albino's lofty intentions to break down boundaries of style, incorporating varied sounds from R&B to reggae to rock. The twosome backs up its boasts with an album's worth of curious, diverse, engaging pop.
NINA SKY opens with the infectious, thumping, dancehall style of the sensuous single "Move Ya Body," a track showcasing the Albino sisters' dulcet, flexible vocals. The duo follows up that dance-club beat by slowing it down a bit on the nimble ode to strong womanhood, "You Deserve," for which they enlist one of the masters of that form, Betty Wright. They also display the ability to play gangsta on the tough-minded "Let It Go." All the songs on Nina Sky's debut were penned or co-penned by the sisters, who show a nascent knack for clever phrases. Perhaps the sky is the limit for this fetching duo.

Good start I liked the cd but I have heard better. I think that these girls have real talent I just don't think there first cd did them any justice. There are a few good songs that sounded great then there were the others that left you wanting more. Hopefully there next cd will be more revealing as to what these girls can actually do.

And all ya need to stop hatin on our Puerto Rican Beautys!!!! Submitted by Angela Flores (Inland Empire, California) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
This thing is booty I love their voices. However not negate the fact they can harmonize but their lyrics and leads are below standard. They are sub par in those catergories. I find their best vocal performance on the Calobrative song/ with the Alchemist featuring Nina Sky/Prodigy/Noyd/and Lil Ghee. No one is hating. I hate to hear an album like this though. It does them no justice. All of their songs should just be harmonized with no vocals. Then and only then will there be an increase of recognition that their fans believe they so deserve. Until then they will only be known for their beauty and booty lyrics. Submitted by June (Dware) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
