Senegalese-born R&B singer Akon returns with the follow-up to his highly acclaimed debut TROUBLE. The talented vocalist shows he's able to juggle a few different R&B styles from seductive love songs ("I Wanna Love You") to deeper dirges of self-reflection ("The Rain") to heartfelt tributes to his homeland ("Mama Africa"). KONVICTED also has its share of hardcore hip-hop, with guest appearances from Styles-P and Snoop Dogg; Eminem even checks in on the official club hit, "Smack That."

Rolling Stone (p.126) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Akon's silky, instantly recognizable vocals have made him an in-demand hook dude..."
Spin (p.88) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[S]natches of melodica, strutting piano, and lightly toasted reggae grooves keep the album firmly rooted."
Entertainment Weekly (p.127) - "With his sensitive-guy croon and ex-con vocabulary, Senegal-raised singer Akon is the R&B thug of the moment."
CMJ (p.40) - "Akon is an absolutely magnetic vocalist..."
Vibe (p.111) - "The album's a collection of immaculately constructed songs....Akon creates a comforting consistency..."

I love everything about this cd. I'm surprised no one has mentioned my favorite "Gangsta Bop". The whole thing is well put together. This cd needs to be listened to loud with headphones to really hear it.

Everything's Fine
Alice Ripley Everything's Fine CD  (2001)

Konvicted songs
CD $13.15  Audio Samples
This flawless collection of intimate and confessional songs is a complete stylistic departure from the Broadway songbook that has won actress Alice Ripley critical acclaim on stage and in original cast recordings. Ripley, along with producer Joel Moss, has created an album brimming with world rhythms, haunting melodies, and captivating lyrics that reveals new treasures upon repeated listenings. Expertly melding influences that encompass folk, country, pop, worldbeat, blues, and jazz, Ripley's songwriting displays a greater spiritual depth than a typical contemporary adult rock album. Though the tracks comprise a biographical song cycle based on Ripley's tumultuous upbringing, there is never a hint of self-indulgence or shoegazing. The sparse organic arrangements are supported with colorful performances by her studio band that encourage Ripley to soar with a romantic and fiery sophistication. Each track is a gem. Ripley often displays a flare for the dramatic, especially when the second cut, "Shine On," bursts into an irresistibly hooky chorus, or in the blue-eyed soulful dialogue she injects into the verses of the title cut's swamp-funk groove. With this striking solo debut, Alice Ripley proves she has the strength to shed her theatrical skin and embark a strictly musical career. ~ Tom Semioli "I was born six years before we landed on the moon," writes Alice Ripley. "Seven weeks before the Beatles landed on the Ed Sullivan show, three weeks after John F. Kennedy was assassinated, and eleven days before Christmas." On her debut album, Everything's Fine, Alice again enters quietly into an America distracted by splashier events. In the stillness when no one else is looking, she writes the surprising poetry of the ordinary-in which shoes and steering wheels figure as largely as angels, and tragedy may be a sunny afternoon in suburbia."The Bradys rule," Alice sings-as well she should, since her own experience, growing up, was a Brady-esque cobbling together of families. After her parents divorced and her father remarried, she found herself the middle child of eleven. Alice has joked that she didn't get her very own underwear until she left for college. Much of her writing reflects the uneasiness born of having come of age in a crowd-both loved and overlooked, ...

Never known for subtlety or restraint, Bad Boy Bill bangs it not popular, but mainstream. So while you might not recognize the tunes, it's more than easy to grasp and it's all aimed right at the dancefloor. Leave your snooty taste behind and it's a primitive, seamless mix full of good times and guilty pleasures; 36 tracks of mainstream house music whip by before you know what happened and Bad Boy Bill gets name-checked by some overzealous MC repeatedly. ...
