... Sadly 'Bittersweet' wasn't a huge success for her and not many people will have heard of the album or immediately recognise her name which I think is a shame. Another thing, which is a shame, is the fact that since this was released in 2003 she hasn't released anything. I did read somewhere ... Read review

Advantages: She has a stunning voice. Several stand out tracks. Disadvantages: Some weaker tracks
When I heard Hit 'Em Up Style (Opps!) and Breathe I fell in love with them and when I heard that Blu Cantrell were releasing an album I bought it straight away. Expecting the rest of the album to be similar to these hits I was really disappointed and the CD got forgotten about and never listened to again as I had copies of Hit 'Em Up Style and Breathe on RnB compilation CDs. That was until recently. I dug it out and listened to it in the car and ... ...and I put it on my iTunes and listened to some of the tracks as I have it on random. A few times a song would come on and I'd think who was that, as I couldn't place it. When I saw it was Blu Cantrell I was surprised and I turned it up and listened to it several times. Then I realised it wasn't as bad as I thought it was. On closer inspection I can see why I came to the conclusion that the album wasn't all that good. The problem was the two hits ...

Advantages: Wonderful voice, variety of musical styles Disadvantages: None
For any of you who have the pleasure of young adult children, for want of a better phrase, the chances are, you will have heard of Blu Cantrell. She shot to fame in 2001 with her debut single “Hit ‘Em up Style”, and although it made the top 10, did not get a vast amount of airplay.
Miss Cantrell is currently in the charts with Sean Paul, with the release of their single “Breathe”. She comes across as a bubbly, effervescent girl, confident in her ... ...“Bittersweet” is her second album, and was released earlier in the year. The album can be bought for £8.99 at CD Wow. I bought the album purely on the strength of the song “Breathe”, as her voice was almost hypnotic.
So what is Blu Cantrell all about? Is she an R&B belter, soul woman, disco diva or a ballad queen?
The opening track “I love you” opens with a piano before Cantrell’s vocals come in, and her soulful voice envelopes the track, at it’s ...

Advantages: Awesome tunes! Disadvantages: Nope, can't think of any...
Ok, there's not much you can say on this cd, except wicked, sexy, fabulous, awesome and exceptionally hot. It's a really good one to have on in the back ground if you're nattering in company, having a romantic night with your partner, or just plain old chillin' out with some chocies and wine.
And, if you've got company round for something a bit more lively, then it's totally wicked then too! Me and the girls love teasin' the lads whilst dancin' ...
