    It's an amazing album and way ahead of its time, it's their best album. She is a super star.

    Best album ever. These songs are really the best you can find about Shakira, including the Shakira album. Oh yeah, in its lyrics you can listen to a free woman and more than a woman a diva.

    Totalmente a frente de seu tempo! Shakira mostrou mais uma vez o quao versatil pode ser e entregou um album que se lançado por uma americana, seria extremamente aclamado.

    I've heard "She Wolf" song when I was 5, so it's very nostalgic to me - recently I decided to hear whole album, however...it turned out to be really mellow/slow to me. After few songs I just got lost, and I couldn't connect with tracks. "She Wolf" is really amazing song, and I'm not saying it only because of memories, but because it got really great hook and Shakira's vocals are hereI've heard "She Wolf" song when I was 5, so it's very nostalgic to me - recently I decided to hear whole album, however...it turned out to be really mellow/slow to me.

"She Wolf" is really amazing song, and I'm not saying it only because of memories, but because it got really great hook and Shakira's vocals are here amazing. "Give It Up To Me" is definitively outstanding track for Shakira, however when we compare it to other Timbaland-produced songs, it sounds completely the same. "Did It Again" and "Long Time" are okay. When I heard first 40 seconds of "Why Wait" I really seem it as a good track, however its chorus killed it...it's too slow for me. "Good Staff" and "Men in This Town" are tolerable, when "Gypsy" has some good moments, but it's lacking something. "Spy" is really weird to me, when "Mon Amour" has the same problem as "Why Wait" - strong intro, slow vocals. :v
    I really hoped that this album would be good, but it isn't. :v    … Expand

    Contains her most electronic music which was very mainstream for the time yet still manages to be very unique!

    Después de la decadencia del Rock en 2005, fue una movida inteligente por parte de Shak de buscar nuevos sonidos y que mejor que experimentar con el Europop y sonidos Dancehall.
    Un trabajo excelente en todo sentido, no queda duda alguna de que Shakira es una de las artistas más versátiles de la historia.

    An album with great lyrics, sounds and a lot of sensuality, unlike his former musical works and the person gave in his previous music videos. I love this album recommend..!!!

    Men in this town is such a jam! The best track on the album and one of my favorite songs from her. Very dance, pop, and a little freaky but in a good sense.

    I personally think 'She Wolf' is an overall good album, despite of being short and completely different from all the others Shakira recorded so long. I like all the album's tracks, but it seems she dedicated much more time to some songs then to anothers, like 'Mon Amour' and 'Long Time', respectively. However, in the end 'She Wolf' is an average, sadly less rated than it deserved to be, album.

    This is Shakira's best album. It is kind of like all of her other albums summed up into one. The best tracks are "She Wolf", "Mon Amour", and "Men In This Town".

    To Be Honest..
    This Album Does Nothing For Me Only About 2 Good Song.. The Rest I Throw Away In The Trash..
    You Can Tell This Album Is Not A "Bestseller"
    Sorry Shakira!

    This album is a joke. It seems an imitation of the style of singers like Lady Gaga, Madonna, electronic music diva Fey and Britney Spears. The worst album I've heard in my life.

    She shows off her great voice in this must have album for any Shakirs fans. I love the latino fusions. Some of the album does sound the same though. She wolf is ovbiously great but I think that men in this town is the stand-out track.

    Awesome album. It's impossible for me to pick a favourite for 'She Wolf'. The electronic sound is new, but I love it all the same. One of the best albums I've heard in a long time.

    Shakira has always been adventurous with her music. She always tries to be as eclectic as possible: adding one more style here, one more influence there, until the final work comes out â

    When i heared the album i don't know if cry or destroy the CD. This is not the Shakira i know. She Wolf doesn't have any song of the music genre that Shakira does (pop rock). Her worst album to the date, but songs are catchy.

    I've enjoyed Shakira's work in the past, but this album contains no more than 3 songs that are listenable with the rest sounding like a high school kid playing around with a drum machine after listening to their parent's disco collection. In a word - embarrassing.

    In fact should be called bitch not she wolf it's just that a lot of songs to dance and forget what are about, the songs are funny and goout at night but she is selling in it so evident with that electronic sounds that makes that goat mix duck voice sounds noise and so needed to be famous an be a hit on USA.

    I've never understood how she ever gained popularity aside from the obvious pretty face. Her voice is atrocious and sounds like she's gargling with motor oil. I can't understand anything she says and in all her videos she dances like an epileptic hooker. Much like the herp, you just can't get rid of her no matter how bad you want to.

    This album is so original and real, it derserves 10! On She Wolf, Shakira doesn't think too much, she just goes for the gut, and seems to make a joke out of the whole thing, she realises it isn't about making yourself look cool, just matter! And that Shakira does, she matters.

    These are very much Shakira songs, not merely songs produced by The Neptunes.

    The music's Pharrell Williams-assisted dancefloor pop; the words entirely Shakira's. Preposterously brilliant.
