Music Madness

		It’s Not You, It’s Me Lily Allen (2008) Effin' Good By GiGi Olorga Here’s a summation of the observation: if you’re after Joan Osborne with some pop, go elsewhere, Lily Allen’s new piece won’t be your piece; but if you’re after an incoherent Alanis Morissette with Madonna/Minogue’s upbeat sound, then this one may be for you.
		Gypsy Patti Lupone (2008) This is How You Sing The famed theater (and some film and TV) performer comes backin an award-winning singing performance - nothing less to be expected from Patti Lupone.
		Identified Vanessa Hudgens (2008) She Passes We listen to Kylie Minogue, don't we? Here's another who isn't THAT great, actually, but can sing those catchy tunes. Plus, she's part Filipino. And she's had Zac Efron, too!
		Breakout Miley Cyrus (2008) Baby No More She had a hottie underwear model date, meaning she's no longer a baby - that even if she wants to play like one. This album's proof you can't be a baby forever (keep wishing).
		Hard Candy Madonna (2008) Madonna Imitates, for a Change For someone who's led all the time, this album - even if catchy - takes where Nelly Furtado, Gwen Stefani, et cetera already treaded.
		Flavors of Entanglement Alanis Morissette (2008) Flavorful, Indeed Not hearing from her for quite a while turned out good - this album's proof of that.
		EMC2 Mariah Carey (2008) At Her Usual Best What did you expect - just because she had flops doesn't mean she's lost it. Mariah carey is, for everyone to know, still in the house, yo!
