Editorial Review:Album Description:In her own unique way, Gwen Stefani has managed to shift our culture since coming onto the scene as the lead singer of No Doubt. With years of defining style and 30 million in record sales under her belt, she will again turn heads with this debut record that is as fresh as it is retro and as progressive as it is feel-good familiar.
With this project, she has enlisted some of the biggest names in music (Dr. Dre, Eve, The Neptunes, Andre 3000, Nellee Hooper, Dallas Austin, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, Linda Perry and Tony Kanal) to create a genre bending masterpiece that is guaranteed to be one of the most talked about records of this year (2004) and beyond.
Amazon.com:On No Doubt's great
Rock Steady, Gwen Stefani was a 'girl that hangs with the boys... just sippin' on chamomile.' Three years and a KROQ-nerd Talk Talk cover later, she presents a solo debut that wants it all--Vivienne Westwood and John Galliano, backseat love and lifetime devotion, '70s pop throwbacks and hip-hop beats as well as Clash adoration (she continues to be managed by the firm of Rebel Waltz, named for a mournful
Sandinista! cut). Among the standout tracks are the stomping, Neptunes-driven 'Hollaback Girl,' the tongue-in-cheek Eve/Dr. Dre collaboration 'Rich Girl,' and the girl-power manifesto 'What You Waiting For?'; another tune, 'The Real Thing,' nods toward role-model Madonna's 'Holiday.' Though it can't match
Rock Steady's inexorable track-by-track flow,
Love, Angel, Music, Baby is such state-of-the-art pop that the description almost feels like damning it with faint praise.

Rating: - * Save Your Money ...
This is one of those CD's that has one or two good songs that had a lot of radio play but the rest aren't worth listening to. Save your money and download the one or two you may be interested in from ITunes.

This CD is pretty good. The best fast song is Hollaback Girl (banana's) (lol) . The best slow-ish song is Luxurious. Is still Pretty good CD There R 7 good songs If you dont like this Cd I recommend Ashlee Simpsons "Autobiography" Peace.!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: - * OK CD ...
I'm 50/50 on this CD. I like almost half and disliked almost half. The majority of the songs I like are played on the radio and did get overplayed, so I had to stop listening to the CD for a while.
Rating: - * Gwen's solo entitlement ...
With this album, she definately managed to create a pop masterpiece. The album's is a top-notch pop recording that has earned a nostalgic place in my mind. Its upbeat and has a high energy throught. The only track that was just "out there" was the song with ANDRE, it was absolutely fun but most noticeably the most forgetable song of L.A.M.B
I definately recommend this fun, catchy pop album by the greatness that is Gwen.
Rating: - * Gwen Kicks It Up A Notch! ...
I was really impressed with this album. A lot of house/pop/rock/ska all mixed together into a great dance mix package!
