Title: Teena is back
Product review: It is a bit of a departure from the Teena that we all grew up and listened to.It seems that with her new record label Cashmoney, she wasn't given total freedom on creating her own music. All songs were coproduced with someone else, most of them were written with other song writers and it features alot of guest artist. It is their attempt at updating her sound to the current hip hop beats that dominates the air waves today.It works to an extent and it is refreshing to hear the musical makeover but what it lacks is the melting pot of styles that makes her so brilliantly great. Her music was always influenced from numerous genre of sounds,jazz,pop,R&B,soul,and rock. They are rarely shown here. Her trade mark jazz tinged vocals are really held back as well. It only shines on a few tunes like in "My Body's Hungry". Not at her best here but just happy to hear something from a great artist.
