It would take a pretty good argument to deny that Jennifer Lopez is brave--nobody transitions from dance to film to music as boldly or as fluidly--but bravery doesn't factor much into her new disc, despite the title. And that's a good thing. On Brave, JLo busts out a batch of songs that don't challenge pop-appreciative ears--there's no cross-genre experimenting, no political point-making, and no self-serving, overblown ballads. In their place are well turned-out hooks (see "Mile in These Shoes," a song apt to cause ankle injuries in untold numbers of Jimmy Choo owners), bright production ("Hold It Don't Drop It" samples Tavares's groovealicious "It Only Takes a Minute"), and a voice very much in the mood to have a good time. "Stay Together," the opener, sets a happy, beat-heavy tone that holds up all album long--here's Jenny reminding the masses that monogamy need not be a buzz kill: "Stay together, it's the new break-up/Stay together, it's the new trend," she trills, and you believe her. Brave may not be the most groundbreaking record ever to climb the pop charts, but it's enough to convince you JLo's discs don't stint on substance. And it'll raise your pulse, too. --Tammy La Gorce

Customer Reviews

Great!!!
Great CD - This one and the one in Spanish are the best recordings of Jennifer Lopez ever

A Fan Very Disappointed
Every Song Sounds The Same. Same Old Beat, What Happened Girl,Need To Spend More Time With Tempo Changes, Beat Changes, Must Have Put This Together with Little Time And Effort. Sorry Better Luck On Your Next CD.

J- Lo or NO
I was looking for some inspiring driving music. Something fun with a bit of pep. This is an ok album but does not rate as a favorite. I have other albums that most of the songs I love. This has 2... It is currently in my 5 CD holder in the car but I don't think it will stay there.
