  • Summary: Whoa, Nelly indeed. Timbaland produced the bulk of the singer's dancier, poppier third album, and even sings on one track.

    She's found the perfect collaborator to match her voracious appetite for all things pop.

    Loose feels less like an album than a clutch of singles plus accompanying extras. [Jul 2006, p.100]

    Unfortunately, Furtado doesn't have the rhyming skills, vocal chops or attitude to pull off any one of her new personae.

    5 or 6 good songs, some of them I'd go as far as to call great songs. But the album as a whole doesn't work. A big disappointment after how good her first 2 albums were.
