    A suite of weak songs and half-finished ideas. [Mar 2004, p.120]
  2. There's something rote and antiseptic about the album's party mood--the electro-beats' clean squelch, the undercooked hooks, the odd primness of Kylie's singing.

Unfortunately this stands as Minogue's worst recording....EVER! Full Review »

    She and her co-writers make POP MUSIC, not "cloud rap".
