Pro Reviews: Natalie
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Natalie keeps good company. The urban pop singer from Houston is part of Latium Entertainment, which is headed by hitmaking producer Happy Perez and is home to balladeer Frankie J and ladies' man Baby Bash, both of whom were riding high on the pop charts alongside Natalie when she made her selftitled debut in May 2005. Her lead single, "Goin' Crazy," was giving J's "Obsession (No Es Amor)" and Bash's "Baby I'm Back" a run for their money on the Billboard Hot 100 at the time, all three songs within the Top 50 the week Natalie hit stores. Clearly the folks at Latium were onto something with their rash of highriding chart hits, and after a close examination of Natalie, that special something seems to be a finetuned sense of popcraft, especially on behalf of Happy Perez. This guy made a name for himself producing hardcore Latino rappers in the late '90s, but in the few years running up to the release of Natalie, he began branching out and producing all sorts of hits. So it's not really a surprise to see him produce the bulk of this balladic urban pop effort every song except "Goin' Crazy" and the pair of bonus tracks on this reasonably brief 12song album. He brings a bit of a hiphop vibe to the proceedings, but he mainly sticks in contemporary pop territory. For instance, think Beyoncé or Ciara or Ashanti with a Latina twist. Better yet, simply think Frankie J with a feminine twist. For sure, Natalie fits right into the contemporary pop star template circa summer 2005, and there's a wealth of pop starworthy music here. The first two songs "Goin' Crazy" and "Energy," the former a lovestruck ballad, the latter a boygirl slow jam graced with a dope beat and a Baby Bash feature are wellcrafted pop songs so sticky sweet they alone should make this album successful. But there's more, including another beatdriven boygirl slow jam ("Better Get It Right" featuring Max Minelli), a seductive latenight comeon ("Ooh"), and a fun '80sthrowback cover ("I Can't Wait," a club favorite from Nu Shooz in 1986). If you're down with the other Latium artists, or if you like fellow urban pop sweethearts like Ciara, Natalie is tailormade to suit your taste. Plus, there's a curious pair of covers that make the album all the more inviting: an American Idolstyle number featuring Justin Roman of Making the Band celebrity ("Where Are You") and a Spanishlanguage version of "Goin' Crazy" that just might top the original. - Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide |

Natalie Biography
Few singers can say that basketball is responsible for their quick rise to pop stardom, but if it weren't for the NBA, the sultry Natalie would probably have a desk job. The sounds of Jadakiss, Usher, Gwen Stefani, and Beyoncé filled the headphones ...Full Natalie Biography
