Thought Canada was all about rock for a second didn't ya? Well Sugar Jones is awesome! They've got talent, principle and strongly voiced opinions. These amazing women came from all across Canada (Maiko from my hometown woohoo!) with the determination and strength to form one of the most sucessful pop acts in Canada! Though Maiko has now left to sing with her husband Remy Shand, they are still going strong, ready to put out new material. I wish them all the luck, though I'm sure they don't need it with their array of awards and excellent reviews. Buy the album! You'll thank me for it. It's up-beat and relaxing at the same time, depending on your mood. You are the one who sets the tone of the music. You'll catch different parts as your mood changes :)
Somehow I got wind of the Canadian version of PopStars atfer going through a shameful, embarassing phase with Eden's Crush. So what I did was listen to the album online and realized which set of "PopStars" were better.
Sugar Jones basically blends R&B and Pop seemlessly which is not heard of that much these days (with the exception of Justin Timberlake). They even go as far as to throw in a little scatting session with Toya Alexis (I have no idea who she is but she can sing) on the best track on the album, the fluty "I Got U." The rest of the album is supported with good production (the beats are very good) and typical lyrics except for on the track "If You" which is surprisingly suggestive. But unfortunately, this set has a setback in the form of track #10, "Little Bit Of Heaven." It really has no place on the album, and it's way too sappy.
Best tracks (to me) include:
Basically, if you crave sugar... this should suffice.
this is porbably the best music i have heard in my life. Sugar Jones is such a talented band, and all the girls in it r real perty! I love the song "how much longer". I reccomend this CD to anyone! i also love the song "it's like ice cream". And that is exactly what this cd is like, ice cream.....it is healthy, sweet, and good for the soul. awww.
