After the commercial disappointment of 2007's My December, Kelly Clarkson goes back to giving us what we want on her fourth album. That means more of the radio-friendly pop-rock that made 2004's Breakaway a multiplatinum smash. In fact, "My Life Would Suck Without You," the infectious first single, which shot to No.1, was produced by Dr Luke and Max Martin, the same tandem that delivered "Since U Been Gone." Taking no chances, Clarkson enlists a roster of hitmakers, including One Republic's Ryan Tedder and Daughtry producer Howard Benson, who scores two slam dunks: "Don't Let Me Stop You" and the Katy Perry co-written "I Do Not Hook Up."
On the other side, a well worth wait for Lily Allen second album It's Not Me, It's You. Full of social commentary and witty observations, Lily doesns't hold back. "Not Fair," slates a lover's bedroom skills(wonder who's she talking abt??) and "Fuck You," with its cutesie passive-aggressive lyrics, is dressed up as a beautiful ballad. On the whole, Lil's gone for a dancier vibe but she's kept the quirky samples (think retro gramophones and carnival sounds) that everyones loved on the first album. It's sure to be a hit.
Both Clarkson and Lily is gobby and glamorous in equal measure,so who do u like best???
